Listen now
Description
What if fighting in your relationship could actually bring you closer together? In this week's episode, we’re continuing our seven-part series on relationship patterns that build strong couples. We dive into the fourth pattern that helps couples “make it”... Pattern 6: They fought. They got on each other's nerves, they fought, and were frustrated with each other at times. But they knew how to navigate conflict, bounce back, and move forward. (From Dr. Nicole LePera – @the.holistic.psychologist) Let's dive into the surprising truth that healthy conflict isn’t about avoiding arguments but learning how to navigate them with grace. Based on insights from Dr. Nicole LaPera’s research on lasting couples, we explore why couples who “make it” often have moments of frustration but use them to build resilience, deepen trust, and grow in faith together. Join us as we talk candidly about the reality of getting on each other’s nerves and why it’s normal—and even healthy. From sharing practical tips on managing conflict to recognizing our own tendencies toward selfishness, we look at how God’s guidance can transform the way we relate to each other. Whether you’re married, engaged, dating, or single this episode offers faith-based tools to overcome frustrations, support each other, and foster Christ-centered relationships that honors God. Through laughter and honest conversation, we’ll help you see how God uses our relationships to shape us, refine us, and teach us to love selflessly. Tune in to learn how even conflict can become an opportunity for spiritual growth, leading to a stronger, more anchored connection with God and each other. Proverbs 15:1...A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. **** This is part 6 of our 7-part series based on Dr. Nicole LePera's (@the.holistic.psychologist) 7 Patterns in Couples Who "Made It."
