Week 4 "Good Boundaries & Goodbyes"-Chapters 5&6

Boundaries and Goodbyes- Chapter 5&6
Key Points:
When people aren't respectful of our limits, we can set boundaries, or we can pay consequences.
If your focus is trying to change the other person, you will quickly feel like boundaries don't work for you.
"Say what you mean, mean what you say, and don't say it mean."
It's often the people who need boundaries the most who will respect them the least.
A boundary without a real consequence will never be taken seriously.
The tension exiss because you are doing the difficult work of no longer cooperating with dysfunction.

1 Corinthians 16:13-14 "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous, be strong. Do everything in love."
