Ep. 295 Can Love and Hurt Coexist?

Have you ever asked yourself: Can someone who really hurt me also truly love me? It’s a question many of us wrestle with—especially when the wounds come from the people closest to us.

In this episode, I explore the painful but powerful reality that love and hurt can coexist, even within the same relationship. Drawing from Scripture, personal insight, and the wisdom of the saints, we’ll reflect on forgiveness, boundaries, and the healing grace God offers us when reconciliation seems impossible.

If you’re struggling with deep wounds, holding onto a grudge, or questioning the meaning of love in broken relationships, this reflection is for you. Join me as we seek freedom and healing through the power of forgiveness.
