My parents got divorced when I was 15 years old and the straws that broke the camel's back after 18 years of marriage is my dad had extra relationships outside the marriage that he was unrepentant over and so that blew things up and my parents got divorced and I had some well meaning Christian friends who encouraged me at the time, well Rob, you just need to forgive them. You need to forgive your dad for what he's done. Now, is that good advice or bad advice? That's good advice. It's truth. Good biblical Christian advice. You need to forgive him. The problem was that I felt like, felt like it was very superficial. I also felt it was very pat-answery. I don't know if that's a word, but it just… What it felt to me like they were saying, is you see down in your heart you've got these little light switches: anger, bitterness, hatred, resentment. And you see what you do as a Christian is you just go down there wherever there is and you just turn those off. You see, I'm just not going to be angry anymore. Not gonna be bitter. Not gonna be resentful. Just give it to Jesus and there we go. Now, I know that nobody was saying that to me, it just felt like that's what I was was supposed to do. Turns out, that I mean, I had my pastor, who had to walk me through what I want to walk you through this morning. It’s going to be a very brief crash course on a biblical process of forgiveness. No superficial things here. No pat answers here. People get confused about what forgiveness means. Sometimes people will say to me, you know, Rob I think I can try to forgive this person, but I can never trust them again. That's okay. That makes sense. You can completely forgive someone without ever trusting them again. You can completely forgive someone, ask God to heal you of all the anger and bitterness and resentment in your life and have boundaries up in your life to keep a toxic person out. You can forgive an employee who embezzled money and still fire them. You see that? God can set you free of anger bitterness and resentment in your life toward them, but you can still have boundaries and consequences in your life. I can forgive my son or daughter for disobeying me and I can still give them a consequence. Also forgiving someone doesn't mean having warm fuzzies for them. It doesn't mean you just because you forgive somebody doesn't mean you're going to like them. Did you know there's no commandment in the Bible that says you have to like anybody? Not a single one. “Like” are warm feelings you have for nice people. If you're nice to me, I will like you. If I'm nice to you, you’ll like me. If you're mean to me, I won't like you. Now, unfortunately, I have to love you. Grr! Let me patient and kind — that I am commanded to do. That's why love is so hard. God says you have to love people you don't like. But He never commands you to “like” anybody because you're not going to have warm feelings for toxic, abusive people in your life.

Are we paying attention to our kids? As parents, we focus our attention on our kids’ academics, sports, and activities. But how much attention do we give to our “heart connection” with them? How much attention do we give to building our relationship? Heart connection is essential for influence. The Bible gives us a vision of the hearts of parents turned to their children, and the hearts of children turned to their parents. It is a vision of “heart connection.” Therefore, if God wants heart-connected relationships, we can be sure that Satan wants to break any and all heart connections between parents and their children. . . .

Every family is hurting, and the wounds that come from our relatives can be deeper than all others. Conflict within a family can range from daily frictions and annoyances to rage and hatred and eventually estrangement. We want things to be different but have no idea where to start. After 25 years of ministering to families, Rob Rienow believes reconciliation is at the heart of the gospel–reconciliation with God and one another. You will come away with specific steps you can take in your relationships with your family members to pursue peace and healing in your homes. Each chapter includes key biblical examples as well as present-day stories of families who have experienced God’s help and healing–including the author’s own miraculous healing of his relationship with his father. Our families can bring out the best, as well as the worst, in all of us. May this book guide you in making your home and family a blessing in a broken world.

I grew up in a broken home so I know that there is no such thing as a perfect family. I know what it's like to feel like you're not good enough as a parent. BUT, I also know that you can overcome any obstacle with a God-sized vision for your family. We all have our ups and downs. But that doesn't mean that family life isn't worth fighting for.
