An Invitation into the Homes of Practicing Christians

 

Presenter

Dr. Anthony (Tony) Cook

Studies have revealed much about the state of religion in the United States and how faith is perceived and discussed in public. But how is faith being nurtured in private—with the spouses, children, parents, roommates and even frequent visitors who spend time under our roofs?

Join Rev. Dr. Anthony (Tony) Cook, vice president, Global Ministries, Lutheran Hour Ministries, for an in-depth look at today's Christian households as revealed through new research conducted by Barna Group in collaboration with Lutheran Hour Ministries.

As we uncover faith heritages and history, come discover how vibrant households grow together, practice hospitality, and share their faith with those around them and the next generation.
