Title

How Kenneth's Father Treated the Family Pt. 2

Description

Kenneth tells about his parents' relationship with each other, their fights in the middle of the night over issues of marital intimacy, probably because his father treated his mother harshly. He tells about one night when his father was weeping and calling upon the Lord to soften his wife's heart so that she would be sexually intimate with him. Kenneth sided with his mother and his brother sided with their father. He recalls also his father's love for apple pie.
