If someone wrongs you and says, “I’m sorry,” do you believe them? Or do you need them to say and do more to show the sincerity of their apology?
According to Gary Chapman, author of the popular book "The 5 Love Languages," there are five distinct ways in which people apologize.
If you’ve ever had a situation with your spouse where they’ve said they apologized, but you don’t think they did, you may be speaking two different languages of apology.
Tune in to this week's podcast to hear Duane and Nadine break down the 5 apology languages, and the framework for a perfect apology!
