Скачать или смотреть Jesus’ Wisdom for Family Problems: A Deeper Reflection :

Family problems are as old as humanity itself—jealousy between siblings (Cain and Abel), favoritism (Jacob and Esau), betrayal (Joseph and his brothers). Jesus stepped into this human reality, and his words and example still guide us in dealing with the tensions that inevitably arise in families.

Begin with the Heart: Checking Motives

Jesus constantly drew attention to the inner life: “For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of” (Luke 6:45).

In family conflict, the temptation is to focus on the other person’s faults. Jesus flips the lens inward: first examine your own pride, anger, or unforgiveness.

This doesn’t mean excusing abuse or injustice, but it does mean asking: Am I seeking peace, or am I trying to win?
