When you attend your parents' funerals someday, will you be proud of the way you loved and honored them when they were alive? Or will you have some regrets?
Few commandments feel as personal as the fifth commandment: “Honor your father and your mother.” For some people, that command feels natural and healthy. For others, it raises difficult questions and painful memories.
In this perceptive episode of our ongoing series, 10 Keys to the Universe, Lynn Roush, LPC, and Shay Roush, M.Div, thoughtfully explore the beauty, tension, and wisdom of treating your parents with honor, even when you believe they don't deserve it.
They’ll talk about the real meaning of the word ‘honor’ and explore what honoring your parents does and doesn’t mean. As challenging as this commandment is to fulfill, there are practical ways to show honor to your parents in everyday life.
As you listen to this episode, you’ll understand the importance of treating your parents with dignity and honor, and be encouraged to engage them with both truth and grace.
