I think sarcasm can be a form of passive aggressiveness, and I think in any relationship dealing with someone who is passive aggressive can be very frustrating to deal with. I think if you feel a certain way it should be discussed because if the other person ignores the sarcasm it could cause resentment in your relationship.

[@DJH97]

Yes. Passive aggressive behavior will destroy a marriage especially when pride and arrogance are mixed in. Been there.

I love all that you've talked about in this podcast! Such good information!! One think that our pastor said to us during marriage counseling, many years ago, was - 'you're going to have disagreements, rather than "he said" "she said" "you said", etc, try to see it this way "this is what has happened, how does God want us to resolve it?!" We have found that this thought process helps us to stop the blame game & many hurt feelings, and honestly simply acknowledge that there is a "difference" - so how does God want us to deal with it and move forward in a loving healthy way? Thank you for all of your podcasts - we so appreciate your honest vulnerable truths being shared.

Oooh...such good points and so good to hear thoughts from all 3 of you. It is nice that you are so transparent - makes me not feel like "the only one".

[@amygood5346]

Goodness...so so good! The longer I listen about the stonewalling and processing stuff.

Do not let the sun go down on YOUR anger- you have to be responsible for your own emotions and how to take care of yourself in an emotionally and relationally healthy way when you’re feeling hurt or angry or both. - That healthy way of withdrawal/processing or that healthy way of responding when your loved one needs to withdrawal and process

One "communication killer" the church often misses... and, frankly, minimizes... is that intentional abuse, manipulation and efforts to harm a partner can be easily cloaked as "communication problems," particularly by the offender. When 25% of women in any given church are being abused, well, those stats just don't add up.

[@lcbcchurch]

Hi, Colleen! Thanks for bringing this up. The intent of the “communications killers” content is to provide a resource for marriages that may be struggling with effectively communicating with each other - not at a level where abuse occurs. No one should remain in an abusive relationship - they should get out and get help. God hates abuse! Our Care team guides individuals who contact us to national and local domestic abuse resources. We let them know that they have support from us - access to resources relevant to their situation and someone they can talk to, pray with, and get spiritual encouragement from. Our hearts are heavy for anyone who has experienced an abusive situation. We’re a safe environment for anyone who needs one.
