I go through reading phases. One time I got on a Jim Jones / Jonestown kick and read four or five books about the People's Temple and what happened back in 70s. Another time I got hooked on stories of POW's (prisoners of war, for those of you born after 1980). One of the books I read during that time was "Faith of our Fathers" by John McCain.

It means helping marriages hold together and giving parents a dose of encouragement and wisdom.We live in a county where fewer than 10% of our neighbors actively attend church. Even if our sanctuary were filled to capacity each and every Sunday, there would still be over 2 million people within 30 minutes of our building who will spend Sunday morning doing something else besides attending church.Church attendance is not a substitute for a personal connection to Jesus; but it certainly helps!
