Podcasts about wounded heart

This is the second half of Michael's conversation with Dr. Dan Allender, and it's the more personal of the two. Dan opens by talking about his mother, her death earlier that year, the borderline unpredictability, the way she triangulated him into a surrogate role he never asked for and couldn't escape. He shares it not as a confession but as a map: here is where the wound began, here is how long it took to see it clearly, here is what it cost and what it gave.From there, they talk about what the healing process actually looks like — not as a program, but as a decades-long practice of reading your own life with new eyes. Dan's closing answer is one of the most quietly powerful moments in ten years of this show: write your story, read it to someone, and then face the unsaid. The fear, he says, isn't really that we'll discover how broken we are. It's that we'll discover how beautiful we are.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

Why do certain hurts from the past keep showing up in the present? Today we're revisiting one of our most impactful conversations with Marcus Warner, president of Deeper Walk International and author of Understanding the Wounded Heart. Recorded at our 2025 Hope Together Conference, Marcus shares his personal journey through anxiety, ministry burnout, and emotional healing—and how God revealed wounds from his past that still needed attention. Together, Haley and Dustin explore how unresolved pain affects our relationships, emotions, and spiritual lives. They discuss why healing is often deeper than we realize, and how prayer can become a powerful pathway to freedom. Marcus also shares his practical R.E.A.L. prayer model, a simple framework for inviting God into painful memories and finding lasting healing. If you've ever wondered why old wounds still affect you today, or you've found yourself thinking, "I thought I was over that," this conversation will help you take a meaningful step toward healing, restoration, and a deeper walk with God. Subscribe to the podcast and tune in each week as Haley and Dustin share with you what the Bible says about real-life issues with compassion, warmth, and wit.

What if every conflict in your life is not a sign that you are broken, but your heart's most desperate attempt to heal itself?Josh Trent welcomes Kylie Ryan, mind transformation coach, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast episode 827, to explore why you keep attracting the same wounds in different people, how the craving for certainty is really a craving for safety, and why the obsession with good vibes is one of the most sophisticated suppression strategies alive today.In This Episode, Kylie Ryan Uncovers:(00:00) Intro(08:14) The Wobble Board and the Wounded Heart(11:26) Peace Has No Magic Bullet(14:57) Breath and the Emotional Wave(21:57) Presence vs Performance(29:59) The Trap of Insecurity(36:04) The Jail Cell of Generational Blame(40:43) Force vs Flow in the Body(49:55) Every Emotion Is a Gift(54:06) The Quest for Certainty Is a Quest for Safety(01:03:16) The Christ Consciousness of the Triangle(01:11:19) Fun and Compassion in Personal Development(01:18:04) Being at Peace with What Is(01:22:19) Emotional Epigenetics and Ancestral Grief(01:30:58) Courage and the Game of Life(01:40:45) The Gift of Simplicity

Dan Allender has spent thirty years doing work most people would rather not look at — and in this first of two conversations, he and Michael go there together. Dan is a psychologist, professor at The Seattle School, and the author of The Wounded Heart, among many others. Michael first encountered his work in 1989, at one of Dan's conferences, in a season when his own double life had just come undone. That history is present in every minute of this conversation.They talk about why sexual brokenness isn't a category that belongs only to people who've experienced abuse — it belongs to all of us. They explore what lust actually means: not just desire, but desire as relief and as revenge. They discuss the ways women bear the image of God differently than men, and what that has to do with misogyny and the #metoo movement. And Dan talks about shame not as the wound, but as the thing that — when we stop running from it — leads us back toward God.Part two continues the conversation.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

What if forgiveness goes beyond seeking justice—and actually becomes the path to healing?In this week's episode of Latter-Day Lights, Scott and Darla sit down with four-time New York Times bestselling author Roger Connors to explore the life-changing power of forgiveness through Jesus Christ. Roger shares his remarkable conversion story—from secretly reading the Book of Mormon despite his parents' opposition, and facing the possibility of losing his family over his decision to join the Church, to serving as a mission president, overcoming stage four cancer, and discovering how the Savior carried him through life's greatest trials.Drawing from his new book, Healing the Wounded Heart, Roger explains the difference between divine vs. brotherly forgiveness, why forgiveness is ultimately a gift to ourselves, and how the enabling power of Jesus Christ can help us let go of bitterness, find peace, and experience lasting spiritual healing—even when reconciliation feels impossible.*** Please hit SUBSCRIBE to get our latest episodes, and hit the SHARE button to help us share Roger's story and light with others. ***To WATCH this episode on YouTube, visit: https://youtu.be/-Y1pFWllMqI-----To READ Roger's book, “Healing the Wounded Heart,” visit: https://a.co/d/0bwSFsUU-----To READ Scott's new book “Faith to Stay” for free, visit: https://www.faithtostay.com/-----Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.

This week we're discussing Making Peace with Our Past with Dr. Dan Allender. Most of us know our story. We could tell it in five minutes if someone asked. But knowing what happened and actually being free from it are two very different things. For a lot of solo parents, the past shows up uninvited, in a sharp reaction that didn't fit the moment, a fear that surfaces when things finally feel calm, a pattern with your kids you swore you'd never repeat. It doesn't mean you haven't tried. It means the trying might need to go a little deeper. And the longer we avoid that, the more the past quietly runs the present. In this conversation, Robert Beeson, Founder and CEO of Solo Parent, and Elizabeth Cole, single parent and co-host, sit down with Dr. Dan Allender, a clinical psychologist and author who has spent decades helping people face their stories honestly and find real freedom on the other side. His books The Wounded Heart, The Healing Path, and To Be Told have walked thousands through the hard work of understanding how the past is still shaping the present and what it actually takes to change that. Together they explore why avoidance keeps us stuck, how shame operates and what disarms it, and why grief and anger aren't problems to manage but forces that, held together, can finally move you forward. The conversation is honest, practical, and grounded in real experience from all three voices at the table. Key Insights from This Episode: Ignoring the past doesn't free you. It makes you reactive. The unaddressed past doesn't disappear, it shows up in your parenting, your relationships, and the moments you least expect it. Shame has to be faced, defied, and disarmed with kindness. Running from shame guarantees it follows you, but meeting it with defiance and then gentleness is what actually loosens its grip. Grief and anger belong together. Each one needs the other. Anger without grief hardens you, grief without anger drowns you, but held together they're what actually moves you forward.

In this episode of the Faith Over Fear podcast, host Carol McCracken and guest Dr. Marcus Warner discuss how anxiety often points to deeper wounds, fear-based beliefs and unmet needs for connection rather than simply "weak faith."

Together, they explore practical ways to calm the body, renew the mind and strengthen connection with God and others during seasons of distress. Listeners will gain insight into replacing fear-filled thoughts with truth, recognizing emotional triggers, building resilience and developing healthier responses to anxiety over time. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by panic, uncertainty or recurring what-if thoughts, this conversation offers biblical encouragement and practical next steps toward greater peace and healing.

Episode Overview Why is the Samaritan woman at the well in the middle of the day? Fr. Will reflects on the deep wounds and spiritual thirst revealed in the Gospel of the Woman at the Well. Through the lens of the Lenten series on the deadly sins, this homily explores the destructive power of lust—not simply as a moral failure, but as a distortion of our deepest desire for love, intimacy, and communion. Yet the story does not end with shame. Jesus meets the woman exactly where she is: wounded, isolated, and searching. There at the well, He reveals Himself as the true Bridegroom who alone can satisfy the thirst of the human heart. Key Takeaways The Samaritan woman represents the cycle of sin, shame, and woundedness that lust can create. Lust twists a good desire—the desire for intimacy and self-gift. True love seeks the good of the other, not the use of the other. Many today carry deep wounds from pornography and sexual exploitation. Christ enters directly into our wounds and offers healing, dignity, and freedom. Jesus is the true Bridegroom who alone satisfies the thirst of the human heart.

Trauma. It seems like we hear about it everywhere these days. But what does the Bible say about it? In this episode, Haley and Dustin provide a biblical and lay-level understanding of the basics of trauma – what it is, what it is not, and how it's different from everyday stress and pain. They also explore how trauma can impact us in different ways and also highlight biblical characters and stories where trauma played a significant role—reminding us that pain and suffering are not foreign to the story of God's people. They offer a helpful framework from Dr. Marcus Warner* on how to bring God into your pain. Whether you're walking through trauma yourself or seeking to better understand and support others, this episode offers a biblical perspective on making sense of our pain with encouragement to find healing through God's Word. *See episode 78 with Dr. Marcus Warner, “Understanding the Wounded Heart" for more helpful discussion on trauma.

My life is consumed by anguish and my years by groaning; my strength fails because of my affliction, and my bones grow weak. Because of all my enemies, I am the utter contempt of my neighbors and an object of dread to my closest friends—those who see me on the street flee from me. I am forgotten as though I were dead; I have become like broken pottery. For I hear many whispering, “Terror on every side!” They conspire against me and plot to take my life. But I trust in you, Lord; I say, “You are my God.” My times are in your hands; deliver me from the hands of my enemies, from those who pursue me. Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing love.” Bible characters who had traumatic experiences: Adam & Eve – loss of fellowship with God; Cain kill Abel (their sons) Noah – saw the whole world destroyed Hagar -- Abused, exploited, abandoned while pregnant, fled to the wilderness Joseph – Betrayed by family, abandoned, enslaved, falsely accused Job – Lost everything, faced immense suffering Naomi – Lost husband and sons, displaced David – hunted by Saul, betrayal, and loss of family and friends, lament in the Psalms Mary, mother of Jesus – Witnessed her son's crucifixion Paul – Beaten, imprisoned, shipwrecked Jesus – Rejected, abandoned, tortured, crucified 

Crazy Driver: 2 - "A Wounded Heart" by GraceLife Church

In a culture where despair often overshadows faith, the message of true hope shines with powerful clarity. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar remind believers that biblical hope is not shallow optimism but confident assurance rooted in God's unchanging character and the finished work of Christ. Through honest reflections on pain, loss, and perseverance, the guys show that even in suffering, faith anchors the soul and strengthens trust in God's promises. They emphasize that when hope feels distant, it is often because it has been placed in something other than Christ, who alone sustains and restores. Hope, the guys explain, is not the absence of hardship but the presence of unwavering trust in God's goodness and sovereignty. Their conversation calls believers to live out hope as a daily testimony—thriving, not just surviving—as lights that point a weary world toward eternal victory in Him.Send us a textThanks for listening!

This episode engages the topic of abuse, particularly sexual abuse. Listener discretion is advised. Dr. Dan Allender and Linda Royster, LCMHC—two of the leaders of our Recovery Week experiences—come together to reflect on the heart and history of this sacred work. Dan shares about the origins of Recovery Week in 1988, a gathering that began with a bold hope: that healing is possible for those carrying the wounds of childhood sexual abuse. Linda offers her own story of first encountering The Wounded Heart and the ways it opened her to the possibility of transformation.  Together, they invite us into a deeper understanding of what it means to hold both the personal and the collective—acknowledging that no one suffers in isolation, but always within systems and contexts that shape our stories. Linda speaks to the profound intersections of racial trauma and sexual abuse, and the complex layers of shame that can silence and fragment survivors.  Recovery Weeks create a space to move toward those particularities of the harm you've experienced—where you may want to freeze, minimize, or look away—and to take the courageous step of naming what is true. The goal is not to erase or resolve shame, but to walk through it, opening the way for transformation. This conversation is an honoring of the decades of work poured into Recovery Weeks, and a heartfelt invitation: to those who come, your presence is already a profound act of courage. Our hope is that you might encounter a deeper healing that makes way for new life.

Our western Church culture has a habit of going a mile wide and an inch deep. This causes big problems - on a lot of levels - but especially when behavior modification and church attendance do nothing to help our deeper issues. In this episode, John talks with Dr. Marcus Warner about how to bring freedom to the Body of Christ, and how to work toward spiritual and emotional maturity. Dr. Marcus Warner has served as president of Deeper Walk International since 2006. Marcus earned three degrees from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School – M.Div., Th.M. Old Testament, and D.Min. He has written 16 books on topics ranging from brain science to spiritual warfare including Rare Leadership, The 4 Habits of Joy-Filled Marriages, and Understanding the Wounded Heart. Marcus is a conference speaker and who works with both ministry and corporate groups around the world. A Bible teacher at heart, Marcus has taught Old Testament and Theology as well as serving as a senior pastor for seven years.

This week, we're sifting through some of the "debris" that can hinder people from moving into the healing process in the wake of sexual abuse.  Dan and Rachael talk about some of the questions that can keep people feeling stuck and silent: What if I don't remember everything? What if my healing journey affects my loved ones? Shouldn't I just forgive and move on? Can I wait until life isn't so busy? What if facing this feels overwhelming? By acknowledging these barriers, you can start to see a way through. Next week, we'll discuss what's needed to begin the healing journey from past abuse. Please note that this episode contains discussions of sexual abuse and childhood sexual abuse, and may not be suitable for all audiences. Listener discretion is advised.

As counselors, we know that everyone is walking around with hurts, wounds, injuries, fears, losses, and traumas as a result of living under the curse of sin. And whether you know it or not, or want to admit it or not, your heart has been wounded. Your story contains scenes of heartache and pain, and your sense of being loved by God has been disrupted in some way that is unique to you. In this episode John & Lynn make the case that: unless you know the terrain of your story, and where you've been wounded, then you may be lost, confused, easily deceived, or helpless to resist the enemy's tactics in your life. We'd like to help you know the map of your heart, and how the enemy may already be playing on your vulnerabilities, so that you can become wise, discerning, and ultimately experience God's love in a profound way as you learn how to intelligently fight your spiritual battles.
