Why Ignoring Family Problems Always Makes Them Bigger

Paul borrows insights from Sean’s sermon on 2 Samuel 15:1–12 to show how David’s failure to address Amnon’s crime against Tamar led to deeper family damage and Absalom’s rebellion. Ignored harms rarely disappear; they strengthen, draw others in, and spill over into marriages. Paul urges listeners to set aside pride, repair relationships, and address family issues before they grow and harm your marriage. You can watch the sermon.
