But they certainly aren't. Phil never shirks away from acknowleging the unregnerate lifestyle he lived before finding the Lord.
No, but he promotes teenage marriage, as if that had worked out really great for him and Miss Kay, instead of being just about a disaster. I won't say that's "hypocrisy," but it's certainly "selective memory" or not thinking things through all the way.
Miss Kay wrote, in a sidebar in Phil's book, that she believed he ran wild when he got to college because all the other football players were drinking and partying ... only Phil was an 18-year-old college football player with a wife and children. He did not accept the responsibility of the role he had freely chosen, and bad results ensued.
I had a similar experience in my own marriage. When my husband finished graduate school, he was 34 with a wife and three children. His peers at work were 24 and single, and he felt very put-upon at not having the freedoms they did ... even though he'd already had his turn to be 24 with no dependents.
