READ BY THE AUTHOR

Relationships are wonderful . . . until they're not.

Stop the dysfunction of unhealthy relationships and learn biblical ways to set boundaries--and, when necessary, say goodbye.

Is it unloving or selfish to set a boundary with family members or friends? Are Christians ever called to walk away from a relationship that’s no longer safe or sustainable? #1 New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst deeply understands these hard questions in the midst of relational struggles.

After thousands of hours of counseling intensives and extensive theological research that transformed the way she defined healthy relationships, Lysa is now more committed than ever to loving people well without losing the best of who she is.

In these pages, Lysa will help you:

• Understand the five factors to remember when implementing healthy boundaries.
• Determine the appropriate amount of personal and emotional access someone has to you.
• Stop being misled and emotionally paralyzed by wrongly interpreted or weaponized Bible verses that perpetuate unhealthy relationships.
• Be equipped with effective boundary-setting tools, such as realistic scripts and practical strategies for healthier communication.
• Be empowered to say goodbye without guilt when a relationship has shifted from difficult to destructive.
• Receive therapeutic wisdom you can trust directly from Lysa’s Christian counselor Jim Cress, who weighs in throughout the book.

You'll be relieved to learn that boundaries aren't just a good idea, they're a God idea.

Look for additional biblically based resources and devotionals from Lysa:

• Forgiving What You Can't Forget
• It's Not Supposed to Be This Way
• Uninvited
• You're Going to Make It
• Embraced
• Seeing Beautiful Again

Biblical Boundaries

Lysa Terkeurst is a Christian author who assists Christians in setting Biblical boundaries. Jim Cress is a Christian counselor who helps Christians with healing, showing them that doing so is biblical,.

I couldn’t imagine that Amazon would permit others to leave negative reviews because a religious author wrote a religious book if any the religion was anything other than Christianity.

Exceptional profound and timely!

Lysa did her thang with this book! She is transparent and vulnerable with personal testimonies, supportive and genuinely concerned with helping others set health boundaries, and she is firm and to the point with knowing when to end toxic relationships. I have recommended this book to many clients and friends. This book is the perfect integration of theology and psychology. This book is a must read and share!!!

Will reread again & recommend

So we’ll written & honest.
Thank you for being real & showing you can turn any struggle into a triumph!!

Amazing

Love everything- especially the verses -thank you for your transparency and openness- very very appreciated

Therapy for everyone!

Loved it! This is not just about married couples but relationship with everyone….who knew the reason I struggled with relationships was because I did not have boundaries. Thank you for shedding light on how as women the word of God has been weaponized against us.

Grounded Godly Wisdom that Combats Misconceptions

If you need to understand what Biblical boundaries are and how to use them to create a healthier life, this book will not disappoint. This has the best explanations I’ve seen across a number of books on the subject.

Better than other boundry books

I appreciate her coming from a standpoint of "I am still learning too" instead of most books where the attitude is "I have already arrived" It was very informative on a personal level. I definitely recommend

So very helpful

For anyone looking for clarity and guidance, please read. The author speaks from heartbreaking experience; and, guides the reader with supporting scripture that is coupled with professional insight from her own Christian counselor.

Healing

To say this gave me peace would be an understatement. I found this book at such a profound time in my life and this has helped foster healing in many realms of my health and relationships. Thank you ❤️
