Veterans often carry unseen scars that impact not only their lives but also their family relationships. When loved ones don’t fully understand the depth of trauma experienced, it can create tension, misunderstandings, and emotional distance. This seven-day study helps veterans and their supporters approach such challenges with grace and godly wisdom.
Through Scripture, we will explore how to extend grace to family members who may unintentionally hurt, confuse, or misunderstand you. At the same time, we will learn how to establish healthy boundaries that protect your emotional well-being and foster peaceful, respectful relationships.

Whether you’ve faced combat trauma, PTSD, or other struggles, this plan encourages you to lean on God’s strength, find healing, and build bridges where possible.
Along the way, you will be encouraged to pray for wisdom, cultivate patience, and celebrate small victories of understanding and peace within your family. Let the Scriptures remind you that you are not alone, and that God’s grace is sufficient for every step of your journey.
With God’s help, you can navigate your family dynamics well—honoring both your own needs and the complex feelings of those who love you. Let’s begin this journey toward restoration, respect, and resilience.
