It's a Beautiful Thing! Craig Stephen Smith

God not only calls individuals to serve Him, but He calls families to serve together as well. God's heart is for the family. After all, He created the family to be the place to grow, flourish, and find His purpose and calling. Families that discover this treasure today lay the foundation for a strong and lasting legacy for their tomorrows. And that's what this book is all about.


It's a Beautiful Thing is a journey into helping a family discover meaningful ways of serving God together. It will stir your heart as you pray and seek God for His leading. It is also a great resource to help the local church find ways to encourage and support family-based ministry.



Craig and LaDonna Smith have three grown children, four grandchildren, and three more awaiting them in heaven. Craig is an author, speaker, and serves in a family-based music and preaching ministry that started two generations ago and continues on down to the fifth generation. The Smiths have partnered with their good friends and ministry colleagues, Ken and Becky Berge, who have their own family-based music ministry that has taken them across North America and beyond. Together they desire to see family ministries flourish here in North America and around the world, and that's a Beautiful Thing!
