WHY.

Family: noun
1. As used in the scriptures, a family consists of a husband and wife, children, and sometimes other relatives living in the same house or under one family head. 

Liahona: noun
1. In the Book of Mormon, a brass ball with two pointers that gave directions—as a compass—and also spiritual instruction to Lehi and his followers when they were righteous. The Lord provided the Liahona and gave instructions through it.

From the very beginning, families have been an essential part of the plan of happiness. Without families, we wouldn't be able to return to live with our Father in Heaven. But in today's society, people have become careless with how the family is designed and defined. President Spencer W. Kimball has stated that, "We know the family to be eternal. We know that when things go wrong in the family, things go wrong in every other institution in society." Because of this, I have decided to create a blog about the family and how it can act as a compass and a safe zone for us in the world today.
