    EP 38 | Do I need therapy… or Something Else?

    Has therapy quietly become the default answer to every kind of pain? In this opening episode of the Confessions of a Therapist series, Jonathan Kindler steps inside the tension many people feel but rarely say out loud. Blending scripture, personal story, and lived clinical insight, Jonathan explores the difference between help and healing, why distress is not always dysfunction, and how modern culture may be asking therapy to carry weight it was never meant to hold. Through biblical reflection and honest conversation, this episode examines how growth actually happens. Not just through insight, but through obedience. Not just through conversation, but through community. Jonathan also carefully addresses why many people lost trust in the church, while pointing toward God’s original design for soul care, formation, and restoration through the body of Christ. If you’ve ever wondered whether you need therapy, deeper relationships, spiritual formation, or some combination of all three, this episode invites you to slow down and ask a better question.

    EP 37 | Walking With: When Follow-Through Keeps Falling Apart

    What do you do when someone genuinely cares, keeps trying, and still can’t seem to follow through? In this Walking With episode, Jonathan Kindler speaks directly to pastors, counselors, disciplers, and everyday believers who are sitting across from sincere people stuck in the gap between desire and action. Rather than defaulting to pressure or correction, this episode explores how follow-through often collapses not because of laziness, but because of fear, shame, misplaced trust, and the quiet weight of spiritual performance. Through Scripture, story, and a composite case vignette, Jonathan shows how to read what’s actually happening beneath repeated start-and-stop cycles. You’ll learn how to name patterns without shaming, surface the beliefs holding the cycle together, and help someone take clear, faithful next steps rooted in dependence rather than self-effort. If you’ve ever walked with someone who says, “I really want to change, I just keep falling apart,” this episode offers language, posture, and practical tools to help you walk with them wisely—without fixing, without hovering, and without turning growth into another burden.

    EP 36 | How can I Build a Life That Sticks?

    Why is it so hard to follow through on the things we genuinely care about? And how do you build a life that doesn’t just look faithful in short bursts, but actually lasts? In the final episode of the What’s the Deal with Follow-Through series, Jonathan Kindler pulls the threads together and reframes formation around sustainability, dependence, and return. Grounded in passages like John 15 and Galatians 3, this episode explores why intensity fades, why structure so often turns into pressure, and how spiritual growth quietly derails when it becomes performance instead of relationship. Blending Scripture, counseling insight, dry humor, and honest reflection, Jonathan challenges the impulse to “graduate” from dependence and invites listeners to rethink habits, rhythms, and discipline as means of abiding rather than proving. Introducing the idea of a Rule of Life for the Easily Distracted, this episode offers practical anchors that make return easier than drift in the life you actually live. If you’re tired of adding more systems, more plans, and more pressure—and quietly wondering why nothing ever seems to stick—this episode offers relief, clarity, and a more human vision of faithfulness rooted in grace, not self-reliance.

    EP 35 | What does Discipline Look Like When You’re Exhausted?

    What does faithfulness look like when your energy is gone and your motivation has dried up? In this reflective episode, Jonathan Kindler explores the tension between discipline and exhaustion, confronting the quiet myth that diligence means perfection and that tiredness equals failure. Blending Scripture, counseling insight, personal storytelling, and cultural observation, this episode reframes endurance as dependence, presence, and faithful direction rather than endless output. Through biblical anchors like 2 Timothy 2, Galatians 6, Psalm 37, and Isaiah 29, Jonathan exposes how spiritual performance can replace genuine abiding, and how burnout often reveals not a lack of faith, but a misplaced understanding of discipline. With honesty and grace, he invites listeners to move away from pressure-driven follow-through and toward a faithfulness rooted in relationship with God. Whether you’re worn down by responsibility, struggling under false guilt, or quietly wondering if you’re falling behind spiritually, this episode offers clarity, relief, and a more human vision of discipline—one upheld by grace, not driven by fear.

    EP 34 | Thinking Through: Medication — When the Question Changes

    What does faithfulness look like when medication is already part of your life? In this final episode of the Thinking Through: Medication series, Jonathan Kindler addresses the quieter, more complicated question many people face after relief has already come. Drawing from Scripture, lived experience, and pastoral wisdom, this episode explores long-term use, discernment, and the difference between short-term stabilization and ongoing formation. With honesty and care, Jonathan examines how medication can help, how it can harm, and why unexamined support can slowly shape the soul. Whether you’ve been on medication for years, tried to come off and struggled, or feel unsure how to walk forward without fear or shame, this episode invites you to slow down, stay honest, and keep asking wise questions. Not about whether medication is good or bad — but about what faithfulness looks like when the road is longer than expected. Visit:Instagram: soundmind.live

    EP 33 | Relief Isn’t Peace: Breaking the Scrupulosity OCD Loop

    What happens when faith becomes tangled with fear—and relief starts masquerading as peace? This episode serves as a companion to Episode 254 of The Postscript Podcast, “Navigating Compulsive Behavior Biblically.” In this Sound Mind follow-up, Jonathan Kindler slows the conversation down and walks with listeners who feel stuck in the scrupulosity loop. Blending biblical reflection, lived experience, and practical guidance, this episode explores why anxiety often attaches itself to the things we value most, how the   for certainty in feelings keeps the loop alive, and what it looks like to trust God without waiting for relief. Whether you wrestle with religious anxiety, intrusive thoughts about salvation, or the pressure to constantly “make sure” you’re okay, this episode offers a steadier path forward—one rooted in truth, not sensation.

    EP 32 | Why Your New Year’s Resolution Isn’t Working

    Why do New Year’s resolutions start strong and fall apart so quickly? And why does trying harder often leave us feeling more discouraged instead of changed? In this reflective, Scripture-anchored episode, Jonathan Kindler explores why most resolutions fail not because of laziness or lack of desire, but because we plan from hope instead of reality. Blending biblical rhythm, lived experience, and pastoral insight, this conversation reframes growth away from pressure and toward formation. From Sabbath as design, to conditioning without shame, this episode invites listeners to slow down, tell the truth about their limits, and rediscover obedience that actually lasts. If you’ve ever felt behind before the year even got started, this episode offers a gentler and wiser path forward. Not by doing more, but by walking faithfully within the life God actually gave you.

    EP 31 | Thinking Through: Medication – Is Relief the Answer

    Is relief really the answer? And is medication right for me? In this second episode of the Thinking Through: Medication series, Jonathan Kindler slows the conversation down and invites listeners to examine what happens after relief arrives. When the volume lowers, when the edge softens, when life feels more manageable. What do we do with that space? Blending Scripture, theology of the body, pastoral wisdom, and personal storytelling, this episode explores why relief is not a destination but a crossroads. Jonathan helps listeners discern the difference between mercy and replacement, stabilization and sanctification, quiet and true peace. Drawing from biblical examples of healing, limitation, and dependence, he asks whether relief is helping us walk more faithfully or quietly teaching us what we rely on. Whether you’re considering medication, currently taking it, or wrestling with what feeling better actually means, this episode calls you to wisdom. To discernment. To a peace that doesn’t bypass formation, and a faith that knows what to do when the volume goes down. Visit:Instagram: soundmind.live
