Ron: Sometimes stepfamily relationships need a kick in the pants.

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

Ron: You know throwing the football or exchanging text messages with your stepchildren is just not cutting it. It may be time you dive deep into a service project or a mission trip. I call it a radical road trip. Something like that can break through barriers and deepen relationships all while connecting you to what God really cares about.

Let me tell you about something my family does. Every year we go to Ghana to work with rescued trafficked children. It bonds us together and it deepens our trust in God. A mission trip for your family won’t be cheap or convenient, but it might just be the best therapy your family ever had. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
