Today, Pastor Jack teaches us that the preserving power of the Christian has great purpose. We can have an effect in any and every culture, physically, morally and most of all spiritually.

The post Parable Of Being The Salt – A first appeared on Pastor Jack Hibbs.

This FamilyLife Today episode, hosted by Dave and Ann Wilson, features counselor David Thomas, who discusses signs of an emotionally unhealthy home, drawing from his book "Raising Emotionally Strong Boys." The conversation explores three key practices—recognize, regulate, and repair—that are often absent in unhealthy homes. David explains how ignoring emotional signals, failing to manage stress, and refusing to apologize contribute to dysfunction. The hosts share personal stories, including Dave’s realization of his emotional unhealthiness despite initial denial and Ann’s struggle with comparing her children. The episode emphasizes the importance of naming pain, seeking help, and modeling healthy emotional behaviors for kids. Dave’s childhood experience of suppressed grief and Ann’s encouragement to pray highlight God’s redemptive power in transforming pain.
