Families, Neighborhoods & Communities

The purpose of this unit is to help students from the beginning of their education to become aware that God created the family unit to be the center of an orderly and God-fearing society. It explores the traditional family, neighborhood and community and shows how they relate to each other and how they have been affected by the demise of the family unit throughout the Bible and beyond. By the end of the unit, the students will gain an appreciation for a solid nuclear family, a respect for the interrelations between themselves, their family and society, and an understanding and appreciation for the importance of being ready to join God's perfect family in Heaven.
