Real Family: The God Who Brought You Home

Family is messy. God made it that way on purpose.

Most of us carry a picture of the "ideal" Christian family — two parents, well-behaved kids, matching outfits on the church directory page. And most of us don't fit it. We come from broken homes, blended homes, single-parent homes, or no home at all. We sit in churches built around marriage and kids and wonder if there's a seat at the table for us.

There is. God built the table.

Real Family traces the biblical story of family from its origin in the Trinity to its fulfillment at the marriage supper of the Lamb — and dismantles every lie the church has baptized along the way. Through the dysfunction of Abraham's household, the chosen loyalty of Ruth, the wreckage of David's home, and the Christ who redefined family with four words — "whoever does my will" — J.C. Wright shows that God's family has never been about bloodlines, photo ops, or having it together.

Written from the other side of a broken home, a long season of singleness, and a faith that was forged in someone else's kitchen, this book is for everyone who has ever felt like an outsider in a faith that worships the nuclear family.

You belong. Not because of your family tree — but because of His.

"God settles the solitary in a home." — Psalm 68:6
