208 | In The Making | Pain and Maturity With A Christian Psychologist

from A Little Better

This week on A Little Better, we’re talking about the first maker and marker of spiritual maturity–Pain. No one likes difficult, painful experiences, but in God’s redemptive process, rupture and repair are inevitable in a broken world. Special guest Christine Jean-Jacques, an experienced Christian psychologist, joins Calum Shaw and Matt Sones. Together, they talk through some of the reasons we react to pain differently, stemming back to our childhood experiences. They discuss how we can heal and redeem those painful experiences so we don’t allow them to stunt our maturation.Resources:Be Mature by Warren Wierrsbehttps://a.co/d/19UUid5Embodied Hope: A Theological Meditation on Pain and Sufferinghttps://a.co/d/6KFicowGood Boundaries and Goodbyes: Loving Others Without Losing the Best of Who You Are by Lysa TerKeurst https://a.co/d/0rKKBzIRelational Spirituality: A Psychological-Theological Paradigm for Transformation by Todd Hallhttps://a.co/d/hxVPg79Maturity: Growing Up and Going on in the Christian Life by Sinclair Fergusonhttps://a.co/d/dF5Fybq
