“Family History from a Biblical Creation Perspective”
Family history must be grounded in biblical creation thinking in order to acquire and appreciate its true value. Examples are used to illustrate how to learn and record your own family history information, including practical tips on how to collect and convert loose items of family history information into useful packaging products and experiences that can be shared with family members and friends. Relevant Bible passages clarify how and why family history is valuable for you, your current family, and for posterity not yet born.
