How to Heal a Broken Relationship | Pastor Mark Driscoll 

It’s hard to forgive somebody who won’t apologize or even acknowledge that they have hurt you

Wow! I can't tell you how much I needed to hear this! I was literally crying and asking Jesus to help me forgive. I don't know how. I do have bitterness and have had it for a loooooong time, lots of it. But when you asked God to help us to forgive...I saw 4 faces and knew immediately that I need to keep asking God to heal me and I will be blessing them in hopes to get forgiveness and receive forgiveness. I am a broken person and want to do the right thing for God, my marriage, and my family. Thank you, Jesus, for using this preacher to give this message.

I was in a 4 year relationship and planning a future with the man I fell in love with. Never had such strong feelings for anyone else. God was speaking to me the whole 4 years and I would push it down. The lord was trying to warn me he was cheating. Since then I prayed to lord to deliver me from the pain. I started reading the Bible with the lord guidance. The lord reveled so many many realties. I sent my ex a message and told him I did not condone what he did with her but I forgive you and her. I went on to say I will ask to bless you and I would pray for them both. I know god had been dealing with him. I would send Bible verses and pray. Eventually he came to me and ask if he could tell me the truth. I said yes. I prayed for god to give me strength, guidance and calmness listen with an ear like God. He looked at me the day he was telling me everything and said, how can you be so calm and understanding. I said by the grace of god and I chose to be this way. You got to want to humble yourself. If not I believe I would have blown up cause of hurt. Thank you lord Jesus for you do in my life. ❤

I hardly ever listen to sermons on this account but this popped up and I cried the whole time because I really needed this.

Every one of his sermons- I can’t stop listening to- he’s so awesome and based and biblical! Love pastor mark driscoll!

Face to face is God's way, and it shows maturity

Grace is right... Love is a choice

If this shows a second time, I’m sorry. Your message was just what I needed today. Our marriage is in a winter season right now, I mean 50 below zero, if not more. I love my husband, regardless of our difficulties. I now realize how I need to really give him and our marriage, all to God and stop trying to force things. Lord, please help me to truly forgive, get rid of all this bitterness that I have. Lord, please forgive me for all that I have said and done, that has hurt my husband. I truly pray that you can bring your Holy Spirit in both our hearts. Help guide us and teach us your will and way. We need your healing and guidance. Lord, please, please our marriage, if it’s in your will. Thank you for forgiving me. Help me to be like you and to forgive. I know I’m asking this a few times, but I know how important this and sometimes I need a little nudge. Nudge my heart, Lord. Thank you for your grace. In your mighty name, Amen.

This is speaking to my heart and soul. Thank you for this. This series is helping my husband and I so much!! God bless!!

Pray for me please pastor Mark, my relationship is falling apart and a precious little 2 year old is in the midst of all of this. I am completely crushed & heartbroken right now, 💔

Thank you so much for this series, so much for this one specifically, for making the book freely available, and for teaching boldly and without a filter! Jesus bless you all!

AMEN. EXACTLY. THANK YOU, HOLY SPIRIT. THANK YOU, LORD JESUS. HALLELUJAH. LORD WE BLESS YOUR NAME. LORD WE GIVE THANKS. THANK YOU, LORD. AMEN. THANK YOU, LORD. HALLELUJAH. THANK YOU, LORD. AMEN. ❤❤❤

This is the most convicting message ever, it clearly describes what is happening to me currently. Word for Word... Thanks Pastor Mark

I want to sincerely thank you for this! Please pray for my relationship with my sweetheart! I believe we made a breakthrough tonight after watching your video. It’s definitely what we both needed to hear! You are such a blessing! We will be watching more of your videos! God Bless you, your wife, and family always!

Beautiful truth!

Not with god guidance but with your messages is help me pull through. God has truly blessed you with a gift of teaching. I always struggled to understand his word. Then I found your channel and all that changed.

Ohhh I wish pastor mark was in my city. I’d be in church every chance I got! A REAL MAN and also a family man and rational and biblical teaching. It sucks that most churches are so Luke warm and no words to help the families that need a great leader..

God I pray I can hear a sermon like this every week as much as possible and find a church as awesome as this. Man these people don’t even realize what a blessing it is to have such such and edifying sermon!!

Thank you for preaching the wonderful truth. Love…. and I promise people need to hear relationships sermons.

What a beautiful sermon! Thank you!!!! I shared with my newlywed daughter and son in law. And with my own husband

Wow... Absolutely this message is for me, Pastor, am facing challenges now in my relationship and am praying the Lord will help me to overcome it

Love this!

Loved this sermon, God Bless

What an Awesome sermon!! Thank you!!!!!

Really needed to hear this today... God is so good

Great advice. Thank you

I love this pastor! I forgive anything he’s done in the past! Y’all stop judging and saying hateful things about him! ARE YOU PERFECT!!!? No you’re not.. This is definitely a man of God giving the best most manly and biblical words to the world! Just stop trying to attack him.

Food for the soul

Foregiveness is important no doubt. But what wasn’t addressed is the repetitive nature of forgiveness in a marriage. When I forgive repeatedly, I start to hate myself because it causes me to look inward and ask “what did I do to deserve this”? Many people will “take one for the team” just because they want to be likeable (or loveable), but I believe it is much more important to love thyself.

This was very good!

I definitely struggle with being bitter and not wanting to hear my wife out in an argument. I hate that we fight and i pray the lord keep me strong as i fight the sin that overcomes me. I have a hard time bringing up all the past issues. With God our marriage can be saved.

You give science enough time - it catches up with the Bible. Brilliant!

Yep marriage equals suffering.. thanks for the reminder

Amen

❤❤❤

HOW TO HEAL A BROKEN RELATIONSHIP. ”Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” (James‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

My wife and I are in trouble. I habitually look at other women, somehow, and I don't look at them lustfully. But I can't prove that to her. She feels hurt, betrayed and believes I'm a liar. Please pray for restoration

I am not married but I am in a relationship where my boyfriend does not want to get married and he keeps saying that maybe in the future. We argue everyday, I am jealous and I don’t trust him at all. I feel trapped. I have prayed about it and I get no answers. Please pray for me. Thank you for your wonderful preaching Pastor.

???what should happen when they deny the offense???

Dandelions are not an unknown weed though, it's a Dandelion with lots of heal benefits

I have a girlfriend who cheats at least once a month and she isn't good hiding it but she just Dennis constantly.. I just have to get out

Where is the teaching about boundaries? Fine to forgive but if all you do is forgive you become a doormat...

I’ll forget my wife because of her past which lives in our future I forgive her for that, but I will not forgive those who done great harm to me at one time they can rotten hell

@HeatherC.-bk7vn 0 seconds ago He isn’t a man of God, because if he was, he would follow the commandments of the Lord and honor and respect you and not live in sin by fornicating outside of marriage. God’s commandments are a real thing, not for our salvation, but for our daily lives Pray for his salvation, but leave him and trust God to bring a Godly husband to you

But he has many wives abd concubines 😂 one thing that harms this scripture is his character
