The Right Intention

When Boundaries Are Tested


Listen Later

📖 Episode Summary:


In this powerful continuation of the Healing & Boundaries series, Todd Tononi unpacks what happens after we set healthy boundaries — the testing. Whether it’s guilt, pressure, manipulation, or internal self-doubt, every God-honoring boundary will be challenged.

Todd guides listeners through how to stand strong when those boundaries are pushed, ignored, or rejected — not with anger, but with spiritual authority and unwavering clarity. You’ll learn how to respond with grace and strength, reinforce your peace, and understand why resistance isn’t a setback — it’s often confirmation that you’re walking in alignment with God’s will.

This is the next-level conversation we all need when healing becomes costly, and growth requires new levels of obedience.


🔑 Key Takeaways:
  • Boundaries are spiritual assignments — and they will be tested
  • Resistance is often confirmation you’re in alignment
  • Guilt and fear are common when enforcing boundaries, but they are not from God
  • Jesus modeled clarity and non-negotiable truth with love
  • Learn practical phrases and postures to hold your ground without burning bridges
  • Discover 3 truths to remember when pressure rises
  • Reinforce your healing with spoken affirmations and one bold call to action

  • Remember: boundaries are not barriers. They’re protective acts of obedience.
