This thesis develops a theology of ministry with families. Models are: Niebuhr's Christ as transformer of culture, Dulles' church as mystical communion, and Niebuhr's minister as pastoral director. The family may act as a small church. The thesis states that it is appropriate to use the form of the Family Home Evening Program of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) in a United Presbyterian Church (UPC) using UPC content. Twelve sessions were written. Seven LDS theological beliefs regarding families are considered and compared with UPC beliefs. This presupposed that LDS theology gave more support to families than UPC beliefs. The thesis concludes that beliefs of one church are as strong for its members as beliefs of the other church are for its members. Participating families and the Lay and Peer Advisory Groups served as research colleagues and evaluated the hypothesis.
