Episode Transcript
Ron: Ok, kids, listen up. A critical heart toward your stepparent can bring you a lot of pain.
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Proverbs 20 says, “If one curses his father or mother, his lamp will be put out in utter darkness.” Ok, hang with me. In the ancient world “father and mother” could mean dad or mom, grandfather or grandmother, or another caretaker like stepmother.
So, here’s the deal being disrespectful toward a parent or stepparent makes the lamp of your happiness go dark. That doesn’t sound very good does it? How much better, for you and your family, to choose cooperation and respect. That will make your lamp of happiness shine bright. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
