About the book
Using illustrations and analogies from the world of sports, Clint Archer presents the Christian family as a team. He highlights the one-flesh union of husband and wife as the fundamental team for God's design of society, the family, and marriage. Facing challenges together, this cohesive team must not allow division to weaken their union.
As children are added, Mom and Dad play their unique and essential roles to strengthen the expanding team. The family must close ranks on opponents to God’s design, tackle obstacles, and fortify the bonds in their huddle. In the unity and synergy of teamwork each player is uniquely positioned to advance the team's objective. The goal is to give God glory, and enjoy the blessings and joy that come with obedience.
