Broken trust & healing tough relationships with Lysa TerKeurst

It’s an absolute delight to have my dear friend Lysa TerKeurst on the podcast today. Lysa has been sharing her deepest struggles through writing books, devotionals and bible studies for decades. She has a beautiful way combining biblical truth and heartfelt empathy that makes us all feel less alone. In today’s episode, we discuss TRUST and DISTRUST. She shares that when you starve a relationship from trust - it’s like not giving a human air to breathe. I can imagine that many of you are working through some trust issues - we all are. Whether it’s a broken friendship or marriage or a strained relationship with a family member or dear friend. It can be really hard to manage the healing and repairing process for yourself and even more difficult when it involves your children. One of my favorite parts is when she talks about the importance of healing in a community. She shares how natural it can be to isolate when you’re hurt - but trust rebuilds in community. I am praying this episode touches a tender topic with such encouragement and practical help.In this episode we discuss:Why trust is crucial to all human relationshipsHow to manage broken hearts and relationships while raising kidsHow to move towards healing with resilience Enjoy!Courtney00:00Practical Wisdom and Biblical Truth: A Conversation on Trust and Distrust03:16The Impact of Broken Trust: Emotional Abuse and Betrayal Trauma15:24Triggers and Discernment: Patterns of Behavior and Self-Exploration32:55Resilience and Healing: Overcoming Broken TrustConnect with Pardon The Mess:Christian ParentingPardon The Mess Courtney DeFeoGet your 2024-2025 prayer journal, A Life of FaithResources from today’s show:LysaTerKeurst.comI Want To Trust You, But I Can’t - Lysa’s newest bookDr Amen and Lysa - her brain scanEMDR TherapyWOW - root cover upPardon The Mess is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.
