This podcast episode explores a listener's question about whether establishing boundaries in marriage conflicts with the idea of forgiveness. The host clarifies that forgiveness is about choosing to let go of emotional debt, while boundaries are limits on acceptable behavior that come with consequences. He illustrates this with the example of infidelity: a husband can forgive his wife's affair but still set a boundary that any further infidelity could lead to divorce. The episode wraps up by emphasizing that forgiveness and boundaries are separate choices, empowering listeners to manage marital difficulties by defining their limits while still fostering love and forgiveness. The host also notes that strength is subjective, shaped by personal values.
