Boundaries

I have read this book so many times. It is a classic! For those of us who have struggled with saying yes to everything, I was so thankful that I found this book. 

A heart of compassion and care can set you up for burnout, resentment, and going in directions that God doesn’t want you to go. The authors are brilliant, and they help Christians learn that it is okay to say No and that is actually good for us and others. Saying No when appropriate is a sign of good mental health.

This book really should be recommended reading for every human. Having good boundaries isn’t just about not letting other people not walk all over you or staying in your own lane, it’s about recognizing when you are carrying another person’s backpack, and letting their actions steal your peace. If you think you don’t have boundaries issues, you definitely do. Most, if not all, of us do to some extent. I re-read this book a couple of times a year.

I love this book! Setting boundaries can help you break old relationship patterns and reclaim yourself as an independent person. Knowing how to set healthy boundaries can help you with a range of situations from negotiating your divorce settlement, to claiming your own identity, to working out parenting issues. Not only that but the Boundaries book also helps you to set limits and still handle your divorce in a Christian way.

Boundaries isn’t specifically a book about divorce but knowing how to set boundaries is a game-changer for the divorced and divorcing. You can learn about setting divorce-related boundaries in… show more.

Many of us are taught that to say “no” to someone is unkind and un-Christian. When we can’t say no to others, we are in danger of being taken advantage of -  even being abused. This book explains the reason why we need good boundaries, how to enforce them, and how to become responsible for our own lives and happiness.
