What we came down to was that he thought that he'd been miserable in suffering because he had no boundaries and he had no voice.

That's a miserable place to be.

So his choice was to have total freedom, but it was really selfish just because it wasn't taking her love and her needs

into consideration. Well, that's Dr. John Townsend, and he's back with us today on Focus on the

Family with Jim Daly to talk about how to set healthy boundaries in your marriage. Thanks for

joining us. I'm John Fuller. You know, John, on the last episode, we covered some great examples

of doing exactly that, setting some boundaries. I know for some you're going, oh, no, no, no, I can't do that. Yes, you can. And it's a good thing. We just need to do it in a healthy way. If you missed the program yesterday, you can get the app for the phone or you can go to our website to listen.

It's easy to do and you have access to all that great content.

We're going to continue our discussion today with Dr. John Townsend on his book and Dr. Henry

Cloud, Boundaries in Marriage.

I know for some, I mean, it makes me a little to think about that, but that's exactly why I need to hear

this. I hope that's true for you, too. And where we ended last time was how boundaries bring

freedom in the relationship. Dr. Townsend is a psychologist and very popular speaker and writer.

As you said, Jim, his book Boundaries in Marriage. The subtitle is Understanding the Choices that Make or Break Loving Relationships.

It's a terrific resource.
