To the Tenth Generation God’s Heart for Your Family, Far into the Future

In the midst of family life, most days are too busy to think far into the future. Then once the children are grown, family life can feel like mostly memories, often tinged with regrets. And the future? More worries and fears, laden with unknowns.

Your investments and efforts today matter as part of the grand sweep of God’s lasting purposes. His heart for your family can help you create a culture of faith now that can still be reverberating To the Tenth Generation.

It can happen, yes, in your family—now and for many, many, many years to come.
