How to Experience Real-Time Relationship Restoration

By Elisa Pulliam

I expected my usually happy teenage daughter to bounce into my office singing VBS songs from her morning spent serving at church. Instead, her sullen face conveyed another story.

I certainly thought I was doing a good job until I realized that my kind of loving well is hurried, selfish, and agenda-driven. It’s been about my needs and desires. It’s about how I feel and what I want out of the relationship. On closer examination, maybe that’s the how you’re loving others, too. It’s what we’ve been conditioned for in this instant-gratification culture.…
