The Healthy Christian

Attachment isn’t just a parenting buzzword, it’s the blueprint for how our kids experience safety, love, and relationships for life. In this episode, two mums (one a psychologist and family therapist), get real about what attachment actually is, why it matters more than we think, and how it shapes everything from emotional regulation to future relationships. Because the goal isn’t perfect parenting, it’s secure connection.

This episode flips the script as our teenage daughter takes over the mic, asking the tough questions, and holding nothing back. From how her parents got together to what life in ministry is really like behind the scenes, no topic is off limits. It’s honest, funny, heartfelt, and unexpectedly deep.

In a world full of confusion around masculinity, how do we discern what’s biblical from what’s broken?

This is a conversation for every man, and for anyone who wants to understand what true masculinity looks like.

Pastors don’t usually fall overnight, it’s the small compromises, quiet pressures, and subtle drift that create the cracks. In this episode, we unpack the pitfalls pastors fall into, and how to guard your heart, your marriage, and your calling, so you don’t just start strong… you finish well.

If you’ve ever felt the tension of motherhood, you’re not alone. In this episode, three mums unpack the stretch of motherhood alongside church life and ministry, the constant juggle, the unseen load, and the moments that can feel lonely.

It’s an encouraging reminder that there’s innate value woven through it all, even in the messy middle. ✨

He should’ve gone to jail, but Jesus stepped in and hijacked his story. In this powerful episode, Alistair Wang shares his testimony of a life headed for destruction, radically transformed by grace.

That’s the Gospel: redemption, freedom, and a brand-new life you can’t explain any other way.

If you’ve ever thought, “I love God, but I struggle with church,” this one’s for you. In this episode, Sabrina and Chloe open up about their own stories of disappointment, the messy, complicated parts of a faith community we don’t usually talk about. They also point to the only way to true healing and freedom through honesty, forgiveness, and personal responsibility for what’s yours, while letting go of what isn't.

From drug dealer to street preacher, this is one of the most incredible stories of redemption you’ll ever hear. Proof that no one is too far, too broken, or too lost for God to rewrite their future.

Sometimes you need to face your past so God can heal your present, because ultimately, what you don’t repair, you'll repeat. Joined by special guest, Mervin Jayaseela, pastor, counsellor, and friend, shares vulnerably about his journey from childhood brokenness to healing and recovery. Rejection may be your history, but belonging is your identity. This episode doesn’t avoid triggers; it confronts them.

Dating can be tricky and relationships can get complicated, so how do you navigate it God’s way?

From boundaries and putting God first to secret icks and red flags, this conversation will make you laugh, think, and maybe even cringe a little, all while pointing you back to God’s design for your relationship, to make you more like Him.
