You're bending over backwards trying to "keep the peace" “do whatever it takes to make her happy,” or "trying to beg or control him so he gives you the love you crave."

But when your sense of worth, peace, or identity rises and falls based on your spouse’s emotions or approval, you’ve crossed from love into idolatry. You're trying to fill a need or a hole that only God can truly fill.

In this episode we talk through how you can identify this dynamic, move out of it and stay focused on the only relationship that can truly satisfy.
