Unit 8: Family Salvation
Chapter 37: Family Responsibility
Comments and Resources "President David O. McKay said "When one puts business or pleasure above his home, he that moment starts on the downgrade to soul-weakness. When the club becomes more attractive to any man than his home, it is time for him to confess in bitter shame that he has failed to measure up to the supreme opportunity of his life and flunked in the final test of true manhood. No other success can compensate for failure in the home. The poorest shack in which love prevails over a united family is of greater value to God and future humanity than any other riches. In such a home God can work miracles and will work miracles. ("What a Person Does Practically Believe Determines His Character," Improvement Era, June 1964, p. 445; also in Conference Report, Apr, 1964, p. 5).
