Episode 30: My spouse is extremely jealous to the point that he/she doesn’t want me to interact at all with people of the opposite sex. What should I do?

Episode highlights:

  • Key biblical principles:
    • God is a jealous God (Exo 20:4-5)
    • The Bible calls us to have relationships with other brothers and sisters in the Church (Eph 4:7-16; Heb 10:24-25)
  • The jealous spouse should understand that while there is such a thing as godly jealousy, there is also ungodly jealousy.  It is wrong to prevent your spouse from having godly relationships with other believers.
  • The other spouse should consider whether or not he or she is doing anything to inflame jealousy in the husband/wife.
