Belonging and Becoming

Creating a Thriving Family Culture

About this book

Renew your imagination for what family life can be.Many of us feel overwhelmed about the prospect of raising children in our high-performance, rapid-pace culture. Reflecting on difficulties from our own families of origin can increase our doubt and insecurity about being a good parent. Positive examples of family life can seem few and far between.

Mark and Lisa Scandrette understand these challenges, and in Belonging and Becoming they cast a compelling vision of what the family can be. They offer wisdom from the joys and struggles of their own life, and practical guidance for creating a healthy and deeply rooted family culture. Whether you?ve been a parent for some time, you're just starting out, or you'reonly starting to think about it, this book will inspire you to take new steps toward family thriving.

Now more than ever, we need a new vision for family that is creative, intentional, soulful, and globally aware. Whatever the make up of yourhousehold, your family can be a space of belonging, where each person feels safe, loved, cherished and cared for, and a place of becoming, where each person is supported to to develop who they are for the good of the world.
