How To Have A Healthy Biblical Relationship With Your In-laws

Marriage After God

About this episode

How do you have a healthy biblical relationship with your in-laws? In this episode of the Marriage After God podcast, Aaron and Jennifer Smith answer one of the questions they're asked most, looking at how a husband and wife from different backgrounds become one and build their own family while still respecting both sets of parents. Starting with Genesis 2:24, they walk through three areas: setting boundaries together and communicating them to your parents with love and respect, being Christlike toward your in-laws whether or not they know the Lord, and your responsibility to pray for them, provide for relatives with wisdom (1 Timothy 5:8), and honor your parents (Ephesians 6:1-2) without being ruled by them. Jennifer also shares the dream that helped her let go and cleave to her husband.
