The stories we create about our partner's actions can significantly impact our relationships. Jumping to conclusions and assuming the worst can breed unnecessary problems such as resentment. Cultivating better communication skills is crucial for understanding and addressing concerns effectively, ultimately strengthening the bond and fostering healthier relationships.In this video, I address one of the most destructive patterns in relationships—false narratives. As an experienced pastor, police chaplain, and Christian marriage coach, I explain how these false stories formed in our minds can erode trust and weaken marriages. I offer a five-part Biblical solution called the PAUSE principle to help couples break free from this toxic habit. The steps include pausing to reassess assumptions, asking questions, understanding your spouse's perspective, speaking the truth in love, and extending grace and forgiveness.
