Boundaries in Marriage

Hopefully this won't come as a surprise to you…especially if your trying to block my entry into la la land.

The Bible cites in Ephesians 5:31 "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh." This is true. You become one in your purpose to live out the vows made before the Lord from that faithful day forward together. As true as this is, you are still two separate human beings! Each with his or her own individual hobbies, interests, needs, wants, likes and dislikes. It is important that we adhere to these individual interests discerningly. You may not be comfortable with showing signs of affection in public for example, as confident discussing personal financial investments with others as your others or be open open with your concerns about intimacy in the bedroom department among friends! These are the types of situations where boundaries come into play. We're going take be taking a few weeks to look at the kind of encounters life can throw at you where having boundaries can actually free and empower instead of restrict and enslave you within your marriage. Testing times will arise and it is our mission to help you get through them in much the same way others have done so before you.
