The over-arching objective of Adventist Family Ministries is to
strengthen the family as a discipling center. The family was
established by divine creation as the fundamental human institution.
It is the primary setting in which values are learned and the
capacity for close relationships with God and with other human
beings is developed.
Adventist Family Ministries is a ministry of grace which
acknowledges as normative the biblical teachings relating to the
family and holds high God’s ideals for family living. At the same
time, it brings an understanding of the brokenness experienced by
individuals and families in a fallen world. Thus, Adventist Family
Ministries seeks to enable families to stretch toward divine ideals,
while at the same time ever extending the good news of God’s saving
grace and the promise of growth possible through the indwelling
Spirit.
Adventist Family Ministries focuses on people in relationship. It is
a ministry that provides tools for couples, parents and children,
single adults, and all members of the wider family circle as they
pass through life’s predictable stages and confront unexpected
changes in their lives.
