This is a section from the chapter about giving up co-dependency. This is a tricky topic and I’m kind of dropping you in the middle of it by sharing this section. Feel free to ask ANY questions or make comments. I want to know what y’all think. My Home Was a Prison I thought getting people to like or love me by offering them something was just the way relationships worked. That meant I had to give up my fundamental…
This blog is part 2 in a series about how I want to bring back classy habits in order to better reflect Jesus to other people. Check out the first blog here.
