Resolving Your Family Feuds

By Dr. Ron Jones

Family Feud is one of the longest-running and most popular game shows on television. While the game show is fun and lighthearted, real family feuds are serious business. 

In Bible times, a conflict between twin brothers, Esau and Jacob, began in their mother’s womb (Genesis 25:19-26). With only a few exceptions, the boys spent most of their lives not talking to each other. Even their descendants—the Edomites and the Israelites—battled for centuries.

Is it time to resolve your family feud? It is always better to resolve a conflict than dissolve a relationship. Before you decide you will never talk to your sibling again, take a deep breath. Do your part to make peace.

I have a sibling sister who is older than me by two years, our mother is in hospice right now and is about ready to travel to her next destination and unfortunately, we do not speak. I have to handle things very difficulty. I know my mom and her last days would love us to see us and harmony, but it’s very hard. I have tried and I think my sister has tried and we just don’t see it.

It’s so true that internal stress can make every little argument feel like a major battle, and finding a way to clear your head is essential for keeping the peace.

Every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.

Romans 8:28 MSG

I have been listening to Something Good Radio for several weeks. I gain new insights weekly that I can apply to my life. After a recent broadcast, I got down on my knees, confessed my sins, repented, and asked Jesus to be part of my life. Thanks to God's grace and mercy, you showed me His love. I am a new Christian because of your efforts.

Thank you so much for preaching the unchanging and powerful word of God every day on the airwaves. My wife and I are originally from India, and now live in Melbourne, Australia. . . . We love to listen to you breaking the Bread of Life. Keep upholding the word of truth in an increasingly dark and dying world.

Something Good happened to me this morning. I listened to Ron's broadcast from last week and feel a renewed sense of hope and encouragement! It was exactly what I needed to hear―to be reminded that our God of yesterday, today and tomorrow will answer my prayers.

Your program on the radio is great. I listen to you all the time. Truckers, van drivers and all deliverers are being saved listening to the programs you come up with. God bless you and continue to broadcast more salvation programs for all those on the road, at home, and at work.

My dad passed away. While driving home, I happened upon your radio show. You talked about redemption. I normally would not have listened, but I was intrigued by what I heard. I want to hear more. I’m not a religious person but I couldn’t turn the program off. I want to learn more.
