Your Question:

How do I tell my family we're losing our home?

Answer:

As a pastor and a father, I know how difficult it can be to have conversations about difficult topics with your family. When it comes to telling your family that you're losing your home, it's essential to approach the conversation with empathy and honesty. Start by acknowledging their feelings and concerns, and let them know that you're there to support them.

Before having this conversation, I would take a moment to reflect on the lessons I've learned from our own experiences with our home. When we were facing a similar situation, we decided to retrofit and repair the foundation, rather than giving up. This taught me that even in difficult times, there's always hope for renewal and restoration. I would use this experience as a metaphor to explain to my family that even though we're losing our home, we'll always be there for them, and that's what truly matters.

As I would sit down with my wife, Susan, and our children, Joshua and Rebecca, I would hand them a key to our home, symbolizing that we'll always be there for them, no matter what. I would also remind them that our family's spiritual home is just as important as our physical one. By working together and supporting each other, we can rebuild and restore our family's spiritual foundation, just as we would with our physical home. This conversation would be a chance for us to come together, be honest, and work towards a brighter future, together.
