Make Time for a Home-Centered Life

November 2, 2019 By LDSPMA Leave a Comment

by Brian Carrington

This book is a monthly planner written in response to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saint’s recent move to a two-hour block and the resulting question, “What is a Home-Centered Church?”

You’ve survived the dating, enjoyed the romance, made the babies, changed the diapers, and lost your mind, maybe more than once. Now the world is competing for your family’s time; work, school, friends, teams, clubs, television, social media, video games, and idleness all want a piece of your time. These distractions can bring contention and anger into any family.

This book contains a simple formula that you can adapt to your skills, your interests, and your stage in life. The book is designed as a monthly planner to help you develop patterns that will help you better manage the most precious time you have, the time with your family. If you want family unity and peace in a world of distractions and anger, this book is for you. It’s time to build a Home-Centered Life.
