Episode Summary:
- Today we’re going to be talking about how to improve mother/daughter relationships and the hope available for restoration and reconciliation. Mother/daughter relationships can be so painful, and especially with Mother’s Day coming up, we can have a tendency to mourn what we don’t have in our own mother/daughter relationship. If you struggle in your mother/daughter relationship, or have been desiring an improved relationship, then you’ll want to stick this program out to the last minute. Experts in mother/daughter relationship reconciliation and restoration, Blythe Daniel and Dr. Helen McIntosh join us to share what they learned, and the lessons they penned in “Mended: Restoring the Hearts of Mothers and Daughters.”
Quotables from the episode:
- When it comes to relationship reconciliation, we have to put our relationship over any differences.
- Relationship reconciliation doesn’t just happen. We have to purpose to be healthy in our interactions with each other.
Scripture References:
- Isaiah 61:4 Then they will rebuild the ancient
ruins,
They will raise up the former devastations;
And they will repair the ruined cities,
The desolations of many generations. - Ephesians 3:20 Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
