Faith Lived Out ~God’s Wisdom for Marriage & Becoming a Better Wife

80 ~ Parents & In-Laws and What To Do When They Make Life Difficult ~ Part 1


Listen Later

Taking two different people, and putting them together in marriage, learning about each other, and learning to become one, can be challenging enough. Then, when you add two sets of parents into the mix, it can be seem impossible that you will ever all get along. Especially if the parents are having a hard time letting go of their baby or understanding their new place in your life.

As a married adult what exactly is their place? What do you do when they make life difficult and cause problems in your marriage or your family? Most importantly, what does the Bible say about how we are to treat our parents?

Today, I’m sharing with you some of my own experiences with parents and in-laws, as well as what scripture tells us about how to treat them and what to do when they make life difficult.

Let’s get started.

 

Episode Highlights:

  • Honoring parents
  • God's command with a promise
  • Relationship to parents as a married adult
  • Is it biblical to remove them from your life?
  • Your family comes first
  • Personal stories of a hurtful father & a difficult mother-in-law
  • Setting up boundaries or limiting time with ungodly parents
  •
