Duggar's New Book! A Love That Multiplies



I know that many of you just love the Duggar family just as much as we do 
and that is why I know you will be DELIGHTED to know that they have a brand spankin' new book that is available for preorder now entitled 

A Love That Multiplies:
An Up-Close View of How They Make It Work


Here is are the publishers comments:

In this second book from the Duggars, they focus on the principles that equip them to face life's challenges—drawing from their most recent challenge with the 3-month premature birth of their newest child, Josie. They also share the new challenges their older children are facing as they prepare for adult life. Central to the book is a section on the principles that the Duggar's have consistently taught their children. These simply worded principles are basic to the Duggar family and are shared in a way that other parents can incorporate in their own homes. A special chapter on homeschooling gives valuable information to parents who are considering this route or are already invested in it. The world continues to be amazed by their nineteen well-groomed, well-behaved, well-schooled children and their home life, which focuses on family, financial responsibility, fun—and must importantly, faith. The Duggar's show how parents can succeed whether they’re rearing a single child or several.

Courtship Questions for Potential Suitors

When a young man and woman begin a courtship there are many things to think about and questions that need to be answered. Stacy and James McDonald are graciously sharing a very thorough list of courtship questions they have personally used in their family. The list truly provides food for thought and even if you only used part of this list or created your own set of questions it is a wonderful starting point especially for those younger ones who are preparing for marriage and still formulating their thoughts on issues and to take a good hard look at their lives and see where they stand on issues:

I am going to have my daughters sit down and look at these questions as I am sure it will make for a wonderful discussion time.


Vision Forum is also offering a new package helpful with this area:



Preparing Our Sons and Daughters Resource Pack

We own several of these resources and definitely would suggest this as a starting place for those who are going the courtship route.

It is so important to prepare our older children and so that
even the courtships of our sons and daughters bring glory God in heaven!


Have a blessed day!
