Episode 20: Redeeming our Shame with Sunil Nadarajan

In this episode, Fr. Thomas and Anthony are joined by Sunil Nadarajan, Executive Director of Amoris Christi. Drawing from over 20 years of experience accompanying young people, Sunil offers a profound reflection on the reality of shame - how it isolates us, distorts our identity, and keeps us from living in the truth of who we are. Together, we explore the Christian understanding of shame and redemption: how Christ doesn’t ignore our shame, but calls us out of it and into relationship. Sunil shares how true redemption doesn’t just free us from the burden of shame, but restores us to the fullness of our identity as beloved children of God.Whether you’ve struggled with shame personally or accompanied others through it, this episode offers insight, hope, and a path toward healing.To know more about Amoris Christi: https://www.amorischristi.org/Show Notes:Curt Thompson, The Soul of Shame: Retelling the Stories We Believe about Ourselves - https://a.co/d/gyipIGXCurt Thompson, Shining Light on Shame - https://www.cccu.org/magazine/shining-light-shame/Brené Brown, The Power of Vulnerability - https://youtu.be/iCvmsMzlF7o?si=93jXqgEY9DbmYX1y
