Boundaries with Dr. John Townsend

Does it seem strange to you that it is healthy to have boundaries
in marriage? This comes as a surprise to many. Why would I want
to have boundaries? Shouldn't we share everything? Couples
without boundaries run the risk of becoming enmeshed, chaotic,
and not knowing who is responsible for what. I could not be more
excited to share this interview with you. I have been a huge fan
of Dr. John Townsend for a long time. Often times, the issues I
see in the counseling office come down to boundaries- or a lack
of. I have recommended his books to more people than I can count.
I have seen so many, including me, go on to find freedom and
increased connectedness in relationships from learning how to
have healthy boundaries. If you were not able to attend the
Military Spouse Wellness Summit put on by InDependent.org and
sponsored by Armed Forces Insurance, never fear. I am pleased to
offer you 5 of the most outstanding interviews from the Summit,
uncut, and including additional questions just for the Lifegiver
audience. As I take a brief sabbatical, I hope you will enjoy
these interviews with fantastic guests like Taya Kyle, Dr. Leslie
Parrott and more. Sit back, grab a cup of coffee, and join me
with Dr. John Townsend. Books recommended from today's interview:
