Episode Transcript
Ron: Stepfamily living…without God? Now that’s a thorny path.
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: You know, life is tough but life without God is even tougher. The Bible, in Proverbs 22:5, says that crooked people have thorns and snares in their way; but “whoever guards his soul” it says, “will keep far from them.” You know, putting up guardrails based on God’s guidance for our lives keeps us on the path.
Family guardrails that encourage morality and ethical living keep families moving down the road despite challenges. So, parents, teach virtuous living and model it. Oh, you can try to put all the pieces of your family together without God, but I wouldn’t recommend it. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
