  • Some Honest Thoughts

    I’ve enjoyed some of the podcast, but have some deep concerns. A simple google search shows that Jim Cress charges about 8k for a 3 day intensive counseling program. I think that is an absolutely disgusting and absurd amount to charge. I also find it inappropriate for a therapist and former client to start a podcast together. It comes across as money hungry and it doesn’t look good or professional.

Q: How can someone encourage adult children through divorce-era emotional healing without controlling their outcomes?
Offer opportunities for therapy and conversation without pressuring; validate their autonomy, provide resources, and pray and support them while accepting you cannot control outcomes, trusting God with their paths.
Bonus: When Healing Feels Slow, Relationships Are Strained, and God Seems Silent | Q&A with Lysa, Jim, and Dr. Joel
Q: What is the difference between submission and subordination in marriage, and how should couples apply this today?
Submission is mutual yielding to Christ that creates a safe space for both partners to honor each other, whereas subordination implies a rigid hierarchy; the former requires both partners to be yielded to Christ first, which enables loving leadership and respectful partnership.

Q: Why do some people feel distant from God despite faithfulness, and how can one discern God's will rather than their own?
Presence can be felt in ordinary moments and through spiritual practices; discernment comes from regular engagement with Scripture, prayer, community, and paying attention to God's nudges in daily life, while recognizing that God's guidance may come in myriad, sometimes subtle, ways.

Q: What encouragement do you have for women dealing with husbands in active addiction and infidelity?
A practical plan includes recognizing the addiction as the driver of behavior, not blaming the partner for the chaos, establishing safety and boundaries, seeking professional help, and prioritizing personal healing and support through counseling or support groups like Al-Anon, while maintaining hope for healing if and when both partners pursue growth.
