Do I have to forgive them if they’re not sorry? What if letting them back in isn’t safe? Writer and Bible teacher Yana Conner joins Dave and Ann Wilson on FamilyLife Today to untangle forgiveness from reconciliation—and the idea that forgiveness means pretending it never happened. She gets practical about confrontation, boundaries, broken trust, and what forgiveness can look like when the other person won’t change.

The Gospel brings peace with God—but it does not promise peace with a world that rejects Christ.

Preaching from Luke 12, Dr. Michael Youssef explains the fire of the Gospel: a fire that purifies those who belong to Christ and warns of judgment for those who refuse to repent. The Name of Jesus demands a response, and allegiance to Him can bring division even within families.

But this division is not rooted in hatred. It is the cost of following the Lord Jesus Christ without compromise.

This episode calls listeners to:

• Reject hypocrisy and spiritual blindness,
• Discern the seriousness of the times,
• Stop delaying repentance,
• Trust Christ’s finished work on the cross,
• Stand firmly for Biblical Truth,
• Intercede urgently for those who remain lost.

There is no neutral ground before Christ. The call is urgent: repent, surrender to Him, and live faithfully before judgment comes.

Scripture Focus: Luke 12:49-59

What will you leave to the next generation—and will they be prepared to steward it well?

A faithful wealth transfer involves more than deciding who gets what. It means thinking carefully about the people who will receive those resources and whether they have the wisdom, maturity, and spiritual foundation to handle them faithfully.

Dr. Kelly Rush, Professor of Finance, Financial Planning Program Coordinator, and Chair of Business and Technology at Mount Vernon Nazarene University, points to David and Solomon as a compelling biblical example. Rush, who also serves on the board of Kingdom Advisors, says David did more than accumulate resources for his son. He prepared Solomon for both great wealth and great responsibility.

David knew Solomon would eventually build the temple in Jerusalem. So before transferring tremendous resources, David helped prepare his son for the work ahead.

His example offers families four important principles for thinking about wealth transfer today.

The first principle is unity: husbands and wives should agree on their plans for transferring wealth.

We see this in 1 Kings 1. As David neared the end of his life, his son Adonijah attempted to establish himself as king. Bathsheba approached David and reminded him of the commitment concerning Solomon. David acted, and Solomon was publicly established as his successor.

For families today, the circumstances are obviously very different, but the underlying principle remains valuable. Parents should work toward a shared vision for what they hope their wealth will accomplish and how it will eventually be distributed.

That unity can clarify the plan for the entire family. Children and other heirs are less likely to receive conflicting messages when parents have already worked through difficult questions together.

Before asking, “How much should we leave?” couples may need to begin with a more fundamental question: “Are we united about what we hope this wealth will accomplish?”

Assets will eventually change hands. The larger question is whether wisdom will accompany them.

David understood that Solomon needed more than resources. He needed spiritual and practical preparation.

David prayed that God would give Solomon wisdom and understanding, and he personally instructed his son to know the Lord and serve Him wholeheartedly. He also gave Solomon detailed plans for the temple and prepared him for the responsibilities he would inherit.

In other words, David did not simply leave Solomon a fortune and expect him to figure things out.

Parents today have a similar opportunity. Children and grandchildren can be taught biblical principles of stewardship alongside practical financial skills such as budgeting, saving, giving, investing, and making wise decisions.

The goal is not merely to prepare assets for heirs. It is to prepare heirs for assets.

That preparation may begin long before an inheritance is in view. Younger children can learn to manage small amounts of money and decide how to give. Teenagers can take on greater financial responsibilities. Adult children can increasingly participate in conversations about family resources, generosity, and long-term plans.

Wealth without wisdom can create significant challenges. But when wisdom comes first, financial resources can become another tool the next generation is prepared to steward faithfully.

David recognized something important about Solomon: he was “young and inexperienced” (1 Chronicles 22:5).

So David prepared him gradually. He imparted wisdom. He supplied practical plans and instructions. Eventually, Solomon received the resources he

How many of us have worried a problem away? We spent hours wracked with anxiety, and that did it! Problem solved. No, not likely. Author Erma Bombeck famously said, “Worry is like a rocking chair: it gives you something to do but never gets you anywhere.” Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out that it’s actually possible to live a worry-free life. We’ll see where to focus our eyes instead.
