Counselee: “My wife doesn’t respect me.” or Counselee: “My parents are such idiots!” or Friend: “When you’re talking with atheists, it doesn’t do any good to quote the Bible to them.” Of course, you realize that few conversations actually work this quickly. Wisdom dictates that it take a bit longer to get from the first observation to the last.
Still, over the past ten years of family counseling I can’t remember a single situation where a counselee was perfectly innocent within a conflict. There wasn’t a single man who hadn’t provoked his children to wrath or not lived with his wife according to knowledge. I never counseled a wife who’d submitted to her husband and loved her children consistently. And -– believe it or not –- I never met a child who honored and obeyed his parents without fault. They all had grievances, they all had mental fingers to point, they all had emotional subpoenas to deliver, they all had judgment to bear down . . . but they all had responsibility too. Each train-wrecked relationship was partially their doing. Each argument was of their own making. The same goes for me. And the same goes for you.
Imagine being a Christian parent who's characterized by fully conscious willful intent and a measure of forethought and planning. Doesn't that sound amazing!?
