As Jeff and Tierney found out, their respective Pleaser and Avoider love styles conflict and can create this pattern of reactive behavior that can be destructive. When not addressed, that pattern moves you farther away from the marriage relationship God desires for you. But there’s good news! Like James 1:2-4 tells us, “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” If you’ve ever struggled with joyfully persevering through trials in your marriage, this episode is for you.
Jeff and Tierney keep it real about their current struggles navigating the stress of moving and pursuing big dreams. Listen in to this continuation, or unofficial part two, of their interview with Marc Lucas, who introduced them to the love styles in the previous episode and opened up this very timely conversation. And stay tuned for a part three in the future after Jeff and Tierney take on the initiative of applying the interventions necessary to break the vicious cycle in real life. They’re truly going right through the fire to refine their relationship!
