Faith in the Family

by Amy Starr Redwine

Most of us are well aware of the traits our mothers or fathers passed on to us—the color of our eyes, our sense of humor, the sports teams we love to support or love to hate. But where do faith and Presbyterianism fit into this litany of gifts passed down through our ancestors to our parents and finally to us? To gain some understanding of the roles families play in keeping the faith, here’s a deeper look at three different Presbyterian families that, as it turns out, have quite a bit in common.

Amy Starr Redwine is a graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary. She works as a freelance writer in Denver and is a frequent contributor to Horizons.

Learn how Presbyterianism has shaped life for the Westfalls, Rosarios and Changs/Rhees. You'll also learn about the family ties and special relationship between two Horizons authors—Dale Lindsay Morgan and Ann Weems.
