Have you ever wondered if you should keep this relationship or let it go?

In this episode, we dive into the tricky topic of navigating challenging friendships, family dynamics and marriages—through a biblical lens. With "toxic relationships" being such a buzzword, how do we know when to work through conflict and when to walk away? Looking at Jesus’ teachings in Matthew, we explore how to set boundaries while still leading with love.

We’ll unpack ten significant red flags, like constant criticism, one-sided conversations, and control disguised as care. Whether you’re questioning a friendship, struggling in your marriage, working through tough in-law scenarios, or wanting healthier relationships, this episode is packed with practical, faith-filled wisdom.

Listen in for real-life insights, scriptural guidance, and the tools to build balanced, fulfilling relationships. 

If this episode resonates with you, you'll want to pick up a copy of Healthy Conflict, Peaceful Life, available everywhere books are sold.
