Good Boundaries and Goodbyes: Loving Others Without Losing the Best of Who You Are

Product Information

It appears that she is receiving ongoing therapy from this man and it felt weird to me that now she was not just his patient, but now also his coworker whose struggles with boundaries he was profiting from. Good Boundaries and Goodbyes explores how people can have healthier relationships by establishing relational boundaries with their partners, family, and friends.

I ended my reading feeling more assure of who I am in Christ, and non-apologetic about the boundaries that need to be set in my life for the good of myself and little family as a whole. From the depth of her pain, Lysa brings a book so many women will benefit from in the years to come. If we believe that we can fully identify with any of these qualities and that it represents our "true self," then we would have no need for God and his grace. Overcome the frustrating cycle of ineffective boundary-setting with realistic scripts and practical strategies to help you communicate, keep, and implement healthier patterns.Or, I've tried everything to fix this relationship but nothing is working--I fear I'm becoming someone I don't even like? Stop being misled and emotionally paralyzed by wrongly interpreted or weaponized scriptures that perpetuate unhealthy dynamics in difficult relationships. Each year, Lysa is a featured keynote presenter at more than 40 events across North America, including the Women of Joy Conferences and the Catalyst Leadership Conference. Lysa's personal writing style and insight, won through many hard-fought battles she shares as illustrations, make it seem as if she is writing from the heart of the reader. Terkeurst focuses on what’s happening inside the reader and helps them work through their experiences in a healthy way.

Most other people who go out of their way to read this book will probably receive far more out of it than I did, which is what I recommend this book to those people.I often see women post comments to Lysa's posts on Facebook expressing gratitude that her writing touches upon their own direct experiences.
