The challenges of the modern culture are part of a massive attack on Christian values as a whole, but especially on the Christian family. Recent laws on sex education, which went into effect, are a perfect example of that. There is an extensive deterioration of industrial and post-industrial society. The ideology of globalization is popularized by the internet and new outlets of sharing of information. This and a lot more is distracting Christians from their purpose.
The family ministry is created to assist:
- In organizing the family ministry at the local churches. This ministry can help both the church members, as well as be effective in reaching the unchurched or unbelieving families.
- In informing the Association’s members through seminars, webinars, and other means of accessible education: How is it possible to instill proper values and safeguard your children in light of the new laws? How to develop, or not lose the relationship with your children? What is happening to our families? What aspects of the modern culture and the lifestyles pose a threat to Christian families, and which can be implemented in raising children, etc.;
- In organizing and hosting family counseling (including online consultation) for families who are in crisis, those who are considering divorce, as well as all those who wish to improve their relationship with their spouse or children.
