Why the secret of married life is not in children, according to Andrei Tkachev
Andrei Tkachev is a well-known clergyman of the Russian Orthodox Church, preacher and missionary. The man gained special popularity as a TV presenter on the all-Ukrainian Orthodox channel. Although some of Andrei Yurievich’s statements were repeatedly criticized, one of his thoughts seemed interesting to us. The priest explained in detail what is family role. I wonder if his point of view is the same as yours? Let's see!

On the 9th day of Easter, Radonitsa is celebrated - a day of special commemoration of the dead. From attitude to death grow all cultures, as many as there are. It is not the same thing to think of yourself as a temporary and accidental phenomenon under the eternal tent of heaven, and vice versa, to be sure that “the sky will curl up like a scroll” and you will exist forever. Respect for the dead and their burial sites does not depend on the memory of relatives alone. And relatives will lie nearby, and close relatives may not remain, and the graves should still be taken care of and treated with mystical respect. That disease of mind and soul, which forced people to lay heating lines through cemeteries, to hammer piles into bones, and for temporary needs to disturb people’s graves without fear, must forever go into the realm of history. Let the nuances of this story, how terrible and unnatural, study experts. Ordinary people, for the most part, have always believed and will always regard death as a secret that requires respect. An ancient queen is said to have left a testament, according to which her successor, who will most need money for the needs of the state, has the right to open her tomb and use the hidden treasures. Years and decades passed. Kings and queens on the throne have changed. Each reign had its own problems, but no one dared to open the tomb. Finally, one of the kings considered his difficulties the most difficult, and ordered the tomb to be opened. What did you see? There were no treasures, but there was an inscription: "You seem quite worthless person, since you dared to disturb the peace of the dead." PART 1. АС️АС️АС️АС️ #a_t_sermon #AndreyTkachev #radonitsa

Some people believe that the strength of marital ties depends on whether there is a child in the family. Moreover, children often become the mainstay of the well-being of marriage. Spouses strive to have a child. However, is the desired child the goal of the relationship between a man and a woman? This is what Andrey Tkachev thinks about this.
“Children are the key to the mystery of married life. If you think that a husband and wife have to live for the sake of their children, then this is not true. Children are not the goal of family relationships. On the contrary, it is the natural fruit of marriage. This is possible if God gives permission. However, he does not always do this...
For example, a woman had to undergo a severe operation that deprived her of the opportunity to give birth. But this does not mean that marriage becomes defective or abnormal. I am convinced that the purpose of any marriage is the sincere mutual love of husband and wife and their complete understanding.
Sometimes couples who want to divorce decide to stay together for the sake of their children. But will such a family life bring happiness? A child was not born to save a broken relationship. If spouses stop loving each other, neither daughter nor son will help solve this problem.
Interestingly, husband and wife are not related to each other. However, in my firm belief, it is one person, one whole. There is no one in the world closer than a husband and wife. Moreover, even children are farther from their parents than their husbands are from their wives, and vice versa.
However, in the real world, women tend to love their child much more than their spouse. Children love their mothers more than the other half. Few people think this is a violation of God’s laws. Again, husband and wife are one. They should love each other more than anyone else.
I am convinced that a normal married life is possible with the full dedication of husband and wife. The first piece should be given to the loved one, the first prayer should be dedicated to him. Otherwise, do not be surprised by the constant difficulties and problems in life.
What is the role of the child in the family? It's very simple. The child should become a natural result of a love union. A child cannot save a relationship, but it can make it stronger. But he should not prevent husband and wife from loving each other.
Let’s be honest, the position of Andrei Tkachev is very ambiguous. On the one hand, indeed, It is strange to enter into a family relationship just for the sake of a child.. And even more so to think that children can save a marriage. On the other hand, it is not very clear how you can graduate your love for your husband, wife and child. So many people, so many opinions. But it's up to you how you feel about the priesthood.
New mom and dad don’t immediately understand how strong they are. family role. Parents will only determine it over time. However, whatever it is, it is important to remember that love and harmony should reign in any family relationship. Only then will the family have a quiet and happy life.
Tell me in the comments, what do you think about the capacious statements of Andrei Tkachev? It seems to be an ideal topic for discussion. Wait for you downstairs!
