1. Introduction to Healthy & Redeemed with Healey Ikerd

Send us your thoughts through Fan MailI introduce myself and the new Healthy and Redeemed podcast.  I share my desires and goals of helping people live healthier lives as Christians. In future episodes, I will share practical ways for you to become more emotionally healthy and deepen your faith.   As a follower of Jesus, it's important that you live as healthy as possible—no matter what you have experienced in the past or what you may be facing now.  Sometimes mental issues can get in the way of spiritual growth.  Unmanaged emotions can also cause undue stress in life and relationships.  Sometimes it can even cause others to turn away from the church or their faith.  My hope is that, by becoming emotionally healthier, Christians can more effectively reflect the image of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in their daily lives. Support the showGet Healey's Books:  Changing Your Feelings - A Workbook for Anxiety and Worry  The Red Ball, A Story of Friendship and ForgivenessThe Companion Activity Book for The Red BallThe Worried Little Goat_______________________________For free Mental Health Resources:  Create an account on my website for unlimited resource access!  Click here to support the show*This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.  I approach scripture through the lens of a Christian licensed counselor, combining biblical insight with clinical understanding of emotional health.  It does not constitute professional advice or is intended to diagnose/treat any disorders and does not constitute a client-therapist relationship.   *Any links to specific resources or content (outside of my own) are not an endorsement of the entire website, author, organization, etc.  Their views may not represent my own.Healthy & Redeemed is a Christian mental health podcast blending Scripture, psychology, and coping skills.
