Episode Transcript
Ron: When strong ocean winds blow, you need an anchor.
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Sometimes at a blended family wedding you can stand back and watch the winds of confusion blow. Tension in stepfamily relationships makes people guarded and anxious all while putting on a smile for the bride and groom. The groom’s side is not sure what to do with the bride’s side and the wedding coordinator struggles with who is related to whom and which labels to use.
But if you look closely you can see it. Right there, in the middle of the blustery winds, the bride and groom—and the vows that tie them together, become an anchor in the storm. Anchored to God, they in turn are an anchor for their extended family. Just as God intended. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
