Beyond Healing: When the Pain Returns in Marriage

Are you struggling with lingering pain in your marriage, even after you've done "the work?" In this episode of The Redeemed Marriage Podcast, Rusty and Heather Bryant discuss the difficult topic of recurring pain in relationships, especially after experiences of betrayal, infidelity, or broken trust.

They explore the reality that while healing can occur, the pain can return and discuss why these triggers are common. Drawing from their own story of healing and working with couples, Rusty and Heather offer practical insights on:

• Why past hurts can resurface in your marriage, even after counseling or forgiveness.

• How to navigate those triggers without feeling like you're back at square one.

• How to support your partner if they are triggered and how to manage your own emotions.

• The importance of shifting your focus to gratitude and a deeper connection to God.

• Practical ways to take your thoughts captive and make them obedient to Christ.

• The power of walking through recovery together and understanding the journey your spouse is on.

This episode is not only for those who have experienced the pain of infidelity but also for couples working through any kind of lingering hurt. You'll hear insights that are essential for any marriage seeking a deeper connection and true restoration. Listen and gain hope as you learn to navigate the journey of marriage together with grace, understanding, and a heart set on healing.
