Two Voices Do Not Raise a Child

Ron: When parenting, learn to sing in unison.

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

Ron: I have a friend in Ghana whose father’s advice to him on parenting is deeply profound: “Two voices,” he said, “do not raise a child.” Huh. That’s right. You see, when parents are singing the same song in unison, the message of the song can be heard by the child, understood, and followed. But if they are singing two different songs there is disharmony, discord, and distraction. We all get this. It’s true in lots of situations. Have you ever had two supervisors tell you to do two different things?

Look, the Bible is the music. The values, morals, and heart principles found there give you one voice as you raise your child. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
