“I hate you.” If you’ve ever heard those words from your child, you know how painful and jarring they can be. In this episode of Family Vision, Rob and Amy Rienow continue their series on the Ten Commandments with a deep dive into the Sixth Commandment—“You shall not murder”—and how Jesus reveals that anger and hatred in the heart are spiritual expressions of that same sin.

They unpack what it means for parents and children to struggle with anger, bitterness, and hatred—and how we can proactively disciple our families toward healing, grace, and reconciliation. This is a timely conversation for any parent dealing with emotional outbursts, strained relationships, or the heartache of children turning away.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

- Why anger and hatred are spiritual violations of the Sixth Commandment

- What to do when your child says “I hate you”

- How the words we use—like “idiot” or “hate”—reveal the condition of our hearts

- The cultural danger of justifying hatred in the name of righteousness

- A biblical strategy to help children (and parents) find freedom from anger
