Ron: What do kids remember most when they become adults?
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: As a child Rachel had two distinct examples of how to treat a husband. Her mom, who divorced her father and held him in contempt and her stepmom who treated her dad with honor, respect, and warmth. The contrast was very clear and left a huge impression on Rachel. She said, “I learned to be a good wife from my stepmom.”
You know, this world and our own less-than-perfect family, will leave many impressions on our children. But the ones that shine through, that really stick to the soul, are those that flow from love. When you feel like you’re losing remember love never fails. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
