7 Unhelpful Beliefs About Sharing Pain Feb 06, 2024

Show notes

Jenna and Aaron share 7 unhelpful beliefs people have (they themselves used to have) about sharing pain with your spouse. Stay tuned for an episode on the helpful beliefs!
Here is a review of those 7 unhelpful beliefs:

Tell them everything I’m thinking
Reveal to them how they hurt me
Get them to see how they failed me
I can resolve my hurt by hearing an apology/admission of guilt
This is urgent. Don’t go to bed angry (two sleepy dysregulated people are horrible communicators)
The goal of conflict is to eliminate future pain or to become pain free
It’s a one and done. If we can have this convo long enough we will fix it once and for all

Genuine Apologies in Marriage Jan 16, 2024

Show notes

In a previous episode, we when into depth about no requiring an apology from your spouse when you felt hurt from them but rather focusing on sharing your heart in order to be known. This is one side of the coin for us. And an important one at that. The other side is that due to not requiring apologies from each other, we wind up giving way more genuine apologies than ever before.
In this episode, we talk about how the lack of requiring an apology from each other and the grace that accompanies that allows for genuine repentence and a desire to change in order to take better care of each other's heart. Isn't this the basis of Romans 2:4, that His kindness is meant to lead us to repentence and not his anger, guilt or shame? That's what He does for us and we want to be more like Him. This is one of the ways we do that.

Forgiving Your Spouse Jan 03, 2024

Show notes

Choosing a spouse is choosing the person you'd like to offer the most forgiveness to of anyone else over a lifetime. Why? Because the intimacy in marriage creates more opportunity for hurt than any other relationship. Therefore, to have a thriving marriage, we must lean into the heart of Jesus and forgive each other like He forgave us. Generously, for the big and the little trangresses, without measure.
Especially when we feel we've been hurt by our spouse so often or so deeply, it can feel like an injustice to offer forgiveness. It feels unfair. Like they don't deserve it. It feels like "healthy boundaries" to withhold it. And yet, Jesus showed us a better way. One that actually produces transformation. That way is forgiveness. It's part of what loving your spouse means and love never fails.
