🎙️ Episode 34: Grace at the Table: Loving Family Through Hard Conversations

When love meets misunderstanding, how do you keep peace without losing your voice?

There are moments when family gatherings carry more tension than joy, when you’re trying to honor everyone and still protect the ones God has placed in your care. In this episode, Tony and Kristy open up about the grace it takes to have hard but healing conversations with extended family, especially when disability or difference is part of your story.

Peace isn’t the absence of conflict; it’s the presence of Christ in the middle of it.

Together they share how prayer shapes tone, how boundaries honor God, and how forgiveness keeps relationships from fracturing under the weight of expectations. This isn’t about confrontation, it’s about cultivating peace, truth, and love at the same table.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• The difference between avoiding conflict and pursuing peace

• How to prepare your heart, and your tone, before a hard talk

• Practical ways to set loving boundaries during the holidays

• Why grace and clarity can coexist in family dynamics

• A closing prayer for discernment, forgiveness, and peace
