Ebook: A family shaped by grace: how to get along with the people who matter most

As a teenager, Gary Morland lived in an unhappy, dysfunctional family characterized by addiction and disharmony. When he started a family of his own, he brought with him those same destructive patterns. Yet he sensed there must be a way to have a family shaped by acceptance and grace, a family that was loving, whole, and at peace with one another. The problem was, he didn't know how. In this life-giving book, Morland shares his journey of discovering the timeless tools of family peace that transformed him and his family. He shows how these tools broke the unhealthy patterns of the family he grew up in and saved his relationship with his wife and two daughters. With refreshing honesty and humility, he helps readers believe that they too can start from where they are right now-no matter how broken-to transform their family culture and their family legacy and to generously offer grace to the people who matter most in their lives.;Intro; Title Page; Copyright Page; Endorsements; Dedication; Epigraph; Contents; Foreword; Yes, You Can Get There from Here; Part 1: Your River; 1.
