Hi, I'm Susie Larson. Thanks for listening to this podcast from Susie Larson Live.

Welcome, welcome to

susie larsen live always honor to get to spend this time with you in fact i look forward to bringing

you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk the deep in your

understanding of god's word and that heightens your awareness of his

very real presence in your life. I don't know about you, but I've heard countless stories

from broken-hearted parents who are estranged from their kids, godly parents who said,

our kids have cut us off over what seems like a simple offense. We love them. We love God.

We don't get it. We're shocked by it all. That's like epidemic. I'm telling you. I've heard it so many times. But there are other times that I hear from young people who say that their parents are so toxic that they needed to make the break. How do you know what to do in situations like that? Well, maybe you're one of those broken-hearted people.

Or maybe that's not your situation. You're connected to your family members, but you feel like you're chafing constantly, like there's constant friction, and you wish that weren't the case.

Or maybe you would just love to see your family thrive. Well, we have an important conversation

today. Rob Reno joins me today to talk about his book, Healing Family Relationships, A Guide to Peace and Reconciliation. You know this. One of my love languages is getting texts from you. I love to hear from you. So I'm asking you, would you chime into this conversation? I'll keep everybody anonymous today. But I want to know, questions, comments, even your scenario,

is there a particular relationship that's kind of difficult for you? And maybe you want to need

prayer or maybe you just need some advice or you just want to chime in. I would absolutely love

to hear from you. A quick announcement before we hear from Rob, excuse me, a little frog in my throat.

It is Pastor Appreciation Month, and I always, we talk about this often. We want you to

appreciate your pastor all year long, but what a great time to have a month set aside to make

sure your pastor knows how much, how much you love them. You can nominate your pastor by going

to our website, My faith radio.com.

In fact, spend a few minutes there.

You'll see all the testimonies and nominations.

And some of these pastors will win a gift pack from Faith Radio as our way of saying,
