When Peace Requires Distance
Loving from Afar Without Guilt
Coming SoonSometimes the most loving thing you can do is create space. Nicole Washington addresses the guilt that comes with necessary distance — and the biblical permission to love someone from a healthy boundary without abandoning your own peace.
About This Book
We've been taught that love means staying close — physically and emotionally. But what happens when proximity becomes toxic? When the healthiest, most God-honoring thing you can do is create distance?
Nicole Washington walks readers through the painful but necessary reality that sometimes peace requires space. Drawing from Scripture and real-life experience, she offers freedom from the guilt that says you're not loving well unless you're suffering well.
Loving from afar doesn't mean you stopped caring. It means you finally started caring for yourself, too.
