Episode Transcript
Ron: You know what? Well-intended bad advice…is still bad advice.
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: “Ron, six years ago our pastor gave us some really bad advice. He told my husband to take over the discipline of my two kids since he was now the ‘man of the house.’ All we did was mess things up.” Yep, you got bad advice. Your pastor had good intentions, but he didn’t understand stepfamilies.
If you’re a helper, ministry leader, even a therapist, you need to get informed about stepfamily living. Attend our two-day summit that equips leaders, go online, read a book, do something. Learn what you need to know. Misguided good intentions can do harm to a family. Get smart wisdom and give good advice. For FamilyLife Blended, I’m Ron Deal.
