Broken Behaviours: Tolerating Bad Treatment Isn’t Loving

This episode examines "broken behaviours"—patterns where one spouse tolerates mistreatment instead of setting limits. Using the image of a man calmly walking out when his wife attacks him, Paul explains that leaving is sometimes a healthy, loving choice that teaches boundaries. Listeners will learn why accepting bad treatment is not loving, how broken behaviours form, and one practical step to stop them: decide not to endure harmful behaviour and remove yourself when it begins. Ignoring bad behaviour isn’t doing marriage well.
