Family Values | Husband and Wife | Priorities

“I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus”
(Phillipians 4:8).

A middle-aged couple are sitting side-by-side on the living room couch. Three picture frames hang on the wall above the couch. In the first frame is a picture of a football player with the world “HERO” spelled out on his helmet. The picture is entitled “Professional Sports.” The second frame shows a man with bared teeth glaring out from a TV screen. This picture is entitled “Television.” In the third frame, just two words appear, in big letters: “Buy More.” This frame is entitled “Commercialism.” The cartoonist shows the wife asking her husband, “Whatever happened to our family values in this country?” To which the husband, in an obvious reference to the frames overhead, replies, “Those are our family values in this country.”
