Ceramic Tile In Living Areas

I am considering putting ceramic tile in my living room and den. Should I be at all concerned about the weight of my furniture cracking the tile?

Not if the tile is properly installed. You need to make sure the back of each tile is fully covered by the thinset, that the floor surface is well-prepared and that somebody has calculated that the floor has an acceptable deflection based on the size, spacing, and span of your joists.
