Therapy and Theology

Have you ever looked at a situation you’re facing in utter disbelief and thought, "How will I ever get over this?" Lysa TerKeurst understands. After years of heartbreak and emotional trauma, she realized it’s not about just getting over hard circumstances but learning how to work through what she has walked through. Now, she wants to help you do the same. That’s why Lysa teamed up with her personal, licensed professional counselor, Jim Cress, alongside the Director of Theological Research at Proverbs 31 Ministries, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, to bring you "Therapy & Theology." While Lysa, Jim and Joel do tackle some really hard topics, you’ll soon find they're just three friends having a great conversation and learning from each other along the way.

    S7 E4 | Are There Some People We Shouldn’t Trust Again?

    Can I trust this person? This is a big question, especially after a betrayal has occurred. The deeper the wound, the longer the repair will take. But not all repairs are equal. You see, there is a difference between wise trust and blind trust. Of course, there is space for grace in relationships, but it shouldn’t be sloppy grace where deceptions and dysfunctions are glossed over. In this episode, Lysa, Jim and Joel will help you see that rebuilding trust requires a combination of three crucial things.

    S7 E3 | How Can I Trust God When I Don’t Understand What He Allows?

    It can be so disillusioning to process things that are breaking our heart, especially when it seems like God is not intervening. Maybe you find yourself asking questions like: When is God going to right the wrongs and bring justice to this situation? How am I supposed to believe the Lord is good in light of this? How can I trust God when the person who hurt me got away with it? In this episode, Lysa, Jim and Joel will meet you in these questions and help you begin to see that faith in God means being assured of His goodness even when what He allows doesn't feel good, seem good or look good right now.

    Season 7 Trailer

    Trust is the oxygen of all human relationships. But it's also what trips you up after you've been burned. Maybe a friend constantly lets you down. A leader or organization you respect turns out to be different from what they portray themselves to be. A spouse cheats on you. A family member betrays you. You're becoming exhausted by other people's choices and starting to question your own discernment. And you're wondering, If God let this happen, can He even be trusted? Lysa TerKeurst understands. That's why she wrote her new book, I Want to Trust You, but I Don’t, which is setting the tone for an entire season of conversations about trust on Therapy & Theology. Through each episode, Lysa, Jim and Joel will give you the scriptural and therapeutic wisdom you need to feel safe enough to connect deeply with people who are trustworthy, process the doubts you have about God, and find the courage to walk into the future full of hope and possibility. Episode 1 drops on September 19, 2024 ... We'll see you then!
