杏MAP导航: Always engage in dialogue in the family despite misunderstandings
By Vatican News
杏MAP导航 Francis on Friday found a moment in the Synod Hall to record a short 28-second video, reaffirming a value that is central to his pontificate: the importance of dialogue as an essential element of a healthy family life.
Dialogue, even amid disagreements
鈥淭hey ask me to speak about synodality in the family,鈥� says 杏MAP导航 Francis, continuing: 鈥淚 can only think that, in the family, there must be dialogue. Sometimes with a bit of conflict, but always dialogue. Always.鈥�
The alternative is grim - relationships within the home, when not nurtured by constant conversation, deteriorate to the point of collapse, he says.
The 杏MAP导航 doesn't mince his words: 鈥淎 family that doesn鈥檛 dialogue is a dead family.鈥� Synodal style, rooted in listening and dialogue, is a fully familial way of living.
