Dr. Phil

Ask the Bishop

As economic times grow increasingly frightening, many Americans are asking, "Will I find a job? Can I support my family? Will my savings survive?" Dr. Phil is joined by Bishop T.D. Jakes, best-selling author and leader of one of the fastest-growing mega-churches in the U.S., to answer your questions and share strategies for staying motivated during this time of uncertainty. First up, Susan says her 19-year-old daughter, Emily, is living in a fantasyland and refuses to grow up and get a job. Emily says she's not lazy, just laid-back. Will Emily hear the wake-up call like her mother hopes? Next, meet Lisa, a wife, mom and self-proclaimed domestic dictator who says it's her way or no way. Find out how she reacts when she receives a surprise visit from the Bishop. Lisa's husband sits down one on one with the pastor. How does Lisa respond when she observes their conversation? And, find out what Lisa's teen daughters have to say about her. Then, Jennifer says she has to wear the pants in the family. Her fiancé, James, says her constant pushing makes him feel like less of a man, and their engagement is on the rocks as a result. Can Dr. Phil and the Bishop help keep their relationship afloat?
