  • Grateful regards from a complex trauma survivor

    As someone with a background in severe psychological and spiritual abuse (among many others, but having done the greatest damage), I have hoped for a podcast like this for probably 7 years. So glad to discover your work and for that love to be used by the Holy Spirit to heal and change me.

  • Needed!

    This is a niche podcast, not because it isn’t needed, but because not many can get at these topics in a graceful, helpful, restorative way. I’m grateful to have stumbled upon it and I really appreciate the time out into these episodes, as well as the seemingly back and forth nature of the podcast; addressing questions from listeners. Thank you to Kyle and the many guests.

  • Unbelievably Helpful Resource

    Love this podcast and have gained so much from the first handful of podcasts I’ve listened to. This is especially helpful for Christians that don’t have a great understanding of psychology
