Manage episode 506480685 series 3634075
Is going to therapy a sign of weak faith—or could it actually be a tool God uses to bring healing? In this episode, I open up about my own journey of wrestling with guilt, shame, and hesitation when I first considered counseling after losing my dad. For years, I believed the lie that if I just prayed harder, I wouldn’t need help. But God showed me that therapy was not a lack of faith—it was an act of wisdom and stewardship.
We’ll break down the stigma surrounding Christians and therapy, explore what Scripture really says about seeking counsel, and talk through how therapy and faith can actually work hand in hand. If you’ve been carrying the heavy weight of grief and wondering if therapy could help, this conversation will give you the clarity and encouragement you need to take a step forward.
Friend, healing after loss is hard—but it’s holy work. And you don’t have to walk this journey alone.
