Have I made any mistakes?
Joseph was one of the most popular priests in town. Wherever he conducted a service, churches were always full of parishioners, eager hear his sermons. He had even talked about god and faith on the radio. But his teenage children didn't like him and told him he should stop preaching to them. "Dad, you are not in church now, relax," they would say, and Joseph felt as if they were pouring a bucket of cold water over him. They didn't bother to read the Bible and laughed at him when he cited it, but they couldn't put aside their smartphones for a second without feeling restless. It hurt him that he couldn't bring up his children as he wished, and he knew that the gap between him and them was only growing. They would probably become strangers to each other once when they left home for good. They would have nothing in common, nothing to bind them together but flimsy family ties.
