The Authority of Scripture in Marriage and Family Life – Kimberly Hahn

In a talk from The Coming Home Network’s 2010 Deep in History conference, Kimberly Hahn looks into the questions surrounding parental responsibilities regarding the rearing of children. Using the Holy Family as an example, Kimberly looks at what Christian parents are entrusted with by being open to the possibility of having children, and how Christian families have looked at that responsibility over the course of the past 2000 years. In the course of her talk, Kimberly endeavors to get to the heart of what is meant by the idea of the “domestic Church.”
