You're listening to the 10-minute Bible hour podcast.

It's fast, fun, free, daily deep dive Bible.

And right now we're talking about Galatians.

My kids are not fighting at all.

They just won't do it.

And I think you're supposed to fight with your siblings like a lot because maybe it teaches you life lessons or something.

I don't know this for sure.

I've watched a lot of sitcoms and family movies and in it all the kids seem to fight a lot.

And somehow in the end maybe it was

good for them that is it weird like maybe i should pit them against each other with a bunch of

contrived situations to get them to bicker more move them toward pitched physical combat you

know i'd like to develop character or something.

But I just can't get them to do it. They like each other a lot and they like hanging out and

they're always nice to each other and helping each other. It's not like it was with me and my siblings

at all. We fought all the time, you know, put hair on my chest. It was good for me.

And it toughened us all up a whole bunch.

Or at least that's what I tell myself. Deep down, I guess I probably actually have regrets about

fighting with my siblings and arguing with them a lot. It did turn out great. And we all loved

each other a bunch. My brother passed away. That didn't have anything to do with us fighting

in his car accident. I wasn't there. It wasn't any. Like we're all very sad. We miss him a lot. He was awesome. But when we were all together and kidhood was all done, there were a lot of high fives all around. I think we all felt like that was a pretty good thing. But it was hard earned. Mom and dad had to work with us a lot.

And they had different principles that they would give each of us to help us not be so mean to each other and cut each other little slack, give each other some grace, be a little bit forgiving.

But we had, you know, we had pretty serious rivalries. I'd rival with my sister sometimes.
