Home is the practice run for the rest of your family's life. Dr. Linda L. Gibson Fletcher knows good intentions aren't enough to change your actions or help you and your family achieve the next level of excellence, so she has created an easy-to-read plan for your personal life, the lives of your children, and the lives you touch.

You will find yourself immersed in the author's personal experiences and her son's reflections on what they have learned about being in her classroom called "family." She wraps these experiences in the assurance and inspiration of G-d's wonderful Word and how His proven Word has kept her and her children through challenges and celebrations. Offering inspirational experiences, instruction, and her son's perspective on what lessons they have held close to their heart, Teachable Moments: Practice Run for the Rest of Your Life is a must-have for the entire family and those who believe that anything is possible with God.
