Summary
Boundaries are biblical. Boundaries are also intuitive: we all know we need them. Still, why do we feel that our boundaries in and around our marriage are constantly in flux or non-existent? In this episode we looked at three main reasons why we lack clear boundaries in marriage, and talked through some of the underlying principles that help us live with stronger boundaries in marriage. We hope it blesses you!

| 0:23.2 | know what the boundaries are or you just haven't articulated what they are with enough clarity |
| 0:27.8 | to be able to actually see them. And the second one is they're unenforced. So either |
| 0:33.3 | they're unclear, unsaid, or unenforced. And so I don't know. |
| 0:38.2 | I think a lot of couples struggle with both aspects of that. |

| 0:52.9 | things out. |
| 0:53.8 | But how do we go about |
| 0:55.2 | enforcing these boundaries and clarifying what our boundaries are and articulating what our |
