Summary: | Summarizes what the author considers the best visions of the family within a Christian framework. Claims that, given the many modern threats to the authentic family, ministry to family members continues to remain a vital center for all pastoral care.…near the cross on which Jesus hung, his mother was standing with sister, Mary wife of Eleopas, and Mary of Magdala. Seeing his mother, with the disciple whom he loved standing beside her, Jesus said to her, “Mother, there is your son”; and to the disciples, “There is your mother”; and from that moment the disciple took her into his home.” (John 19:25–27, REB) |
