Trust Issues: Is the problem in your relationship or is the problem in you?

We’ve all got demons that we carry into relationships; experiences from our past that can impact the way we do relationships in the present. Our past doesn’t define us, but it can certainly have an impact on the kind of relationships we find ourselves drawn to. It can have an impact on who we choose to open up to, and trust. “But absolutely nothing in your life is beyond God’s redemption” (TWEET IT!) If you find yourself struggling with trust issues in a relationship, you might find yourself asking: How do you determine if the problem is in your relationship, or if the problem is in you? How can you deal with trust issues when they seem to come up again and again? What can you do to bring healing into your past experiences, and hope into your present relationships? In today’s show, I talk to Latoya, who finds herself struggling with trust issues with her soon-to-be-husband. Little by little, we find out how her past is influencing the feelings she’s having, and I give her practical steps to help her overcome the grip that the past is having on her life. If you’ve ever struggled with issues from your past having an impact on your present relationships – then this episode is for you. Because like I said to today’s caller: “Absolutely nothing in your life is beyond God’s redemption” (TWEET IT!) Do you believe that healing can happen in your life? Will you receive that healing? Single, dating, or married, this episode has something for you!
