Blended Family Today - The 'BITTER ROOT'

The "Bitter Root" in blended families is known by many names and damages children and parental relationships. Scripture shares in HEBREWS 12 : 14-15 ... '...make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.' God wants us to work to 'live in peace'...yet often a 'bitter root' from divorce damages and causes... Indoctrination. Parental Alienation. Brainwashing. Whatever it's called...it damages hearts and minds. Dan and Rebecca Snell hear often from step-families via mail and at their B3 Conferences (From Broken to Blended to BONDED) conferences about the hurtful nature of the 'other home' or the 'former spouse'. Or how a child has developed innocently a bitter root in their attitude toward a parent. In their B3 Conferences Dan and Rebecca address the 'bitter root' issue and this week they talk about a very controversial subject. This program sheds some light onto the subject, answers questions and in general points to the human heart weakness that we can ask God to change to help irradicate this. GRANPARENTS, AUNTS AND UNCLES, NEIGHBORS, SCHOOL COUNSELORS and ANYONE who comes in contact and sense the 'bitter root' trying to diminish the other parent can be a part of the solution and not just let the issue become even worse.
