17- Carin Roberg | Honoring Our Parents

On this episode of The DiscipleMakers Podcast, we talked with Carin Roberg about honoring our parents. 

The coronavirus has impacted our lives in many different ways. But one significant way has been our proximity to home, and for many college students, it means being home with their parents. For many of us, our teenage years are often marked with rebellion or disagreement with our parents as we long for independence and yet still find ourselves under their roof and authority. 

But as we enter college, that relationship begins to change as more independence is gained and we gain some distance and perspective on that relationship. The Bible also has a lot to say about how we should be interacting with our parents, so if you are a Christian what the Bible says on this topic should motivate the way you relate to your parents in a big way.
