Sidebar - What Honor Is (And Isn't)

In this sidebar conversation, we dig into what the Bible really means when it commands us to honor our parents. Honor isn’t blind obedience, cultural manners, or enabling sinful behavior. It begins with honoring God first—valuing Him above family expectations, traditions, or demands.We also discuss how “leave and cleave” matters for married adults, prayer transforms bitterness, and honoring sometimes requires firm boundaries or even distance when sin is unrepentant.Whether your relationship with your parents is encouraging, complicated, or painful, this episode reminds you of one core truth: your worth isn’t defined by your family’s approval—you belong to God’s family first.Quoted this article on gotquestions.org/We quoted lots of scripture, a handy document can be found here for those who would like to dig deeper.Thank you for being here today.You are worth what it takes to heal, and you are never alone.Love,Kayla and JuneBraveHavenPodcast.com
