Family Faith Boundaries | S3E4 BEYOND I DO PODCAST


Listen Later

When convictions clash at the dinner table, how do you keep peace without caving? In this episode, Adam and Ashlee unpack how to handle family tension around faith—especially when relatives get offended or try to “Bible-bully” you. The core posture: a holy “don’t care” toward drama, not toward people. Hold your own convictions, honor others’ dignity, and refuse the bait. From navigating Catholic–Protestant differences (like communion etiquette and boundaries at Mass) to dealing with non-practicing relatives who still police your faith, this conversation offers level-headed language, real scripts, and a healthier way to love family without surrendering your walk with Jesus.You’ll hear how to separate emotions from truth, set clear boundaries with kindness, and keep inviting loved ones into your life even if they decline your church, baptism, or beliefs. The win? Living with consistent peace, character, and self-control so your life—not an argument—does the preaching. “I’m at peace with my convictions. I love you. You’re always invited.”--Join our AFTER I DO community for Exclusive Content & community!www.afterido.app--Have a question about relationships?
