    Creative ideas, real-life stories, and Scriptural guidance for being the family that loves being together.   
Building Family Ties with Faith, Love, and Laughter is the second of three books in the Faithful Families series where Dave applies his practical, conversational, and humorous approach to the challenge of building strong spiritual ties to each other as a family. Topics include: Contentment, Security, Loyalty, Gratitude, Spontaneity, Communication, and more.  
Preaching is his gift, but Pastor Dave Stone’s family is his life’s blessing. While raising three kids with his wife, Beth, as well as shepherding the diverse families of his congregation, his heart, and passion for building strong families rings louder than ever. He knows that raising faithful families is a key to the future of the church.   
"Dave's book is full of no nonsense, common sense suggestions, and biblically inspired truth. As a parent of two "under construction" children still finding their way in a fallen world, I am keenly aware of the importance of living a life of faithful integrity in order to actually teach it to our kids. I, of course, have failed miserably on occasion. But then, I didn't have Dave's book like you do!"—Kathie Lee Gifford

    Noah was directed by the Lord to make an ark, in which he, his family, and a number of birds and animals, would not be drowned by the flood. God's decision to bring a flood upon the earth was deeply influenced by the reality of evil that He saw carried out by the human race. The song by Chey, 'The Book of Life' at the end of the sermon, gives the listener an opportunity to reflect on the sermon.
