0121 When You’re the One Who Got Hurt

What happens when you’re not the one who caused the hurt…
but the one who has to live with it?

When you’ve been wounded in your marriage, healing isn’t simple.
You’re expected to forgive quickly.
Stay quiet.
Move on.
Be “the bigger person.”
But real healing doesn’t come from silence.
And forgiveness does not mean access.

In this Real Marriage, Real Talk teaching, we speak directly to the spouse who was hurt—emotionally, relationally, or through broken trust—and unpack what healing actually looks like without hardening your heart or losing yourself in the process.

This message is for you if:
• You’re healing but still feel guarded
• You’re tired of being told to “just let it go”
• You want peace without pretending it didn’t hurt
• You’re learning that boundaries are wisdom, not bitterness

We talk honestly about:
✔ Naming the pain without guilt
✔ Why forgiveness doesn’t equal restored access
✔ How to heal at your own pace
✔ What Scripture says about wounded hearts
