Ron: Can you imagine being married to a robot?

Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.

Ron: A robot once took my order at a restaurant. It was pretty cool; it catered to my every need. It got me thinking. What if you had a robotic spouse who would always do as you wish? Do whatever and cater to your every need. What would you have? Well, it wouldn’t be real love without free will. All you’d have is an algorithm. What about you? Would you be a better spouse to a robot? I think not. Your selfishness would only increase and so would your empty, lonely, colorless life.

No, I think God’s design calling for two people filled with dedication and surrender is a much better plan. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
