Trust: The Oxygen of All Relationships | New Episodes of Therapy & Theology Coming Soon!

Trust is the oxygen of all human relationships. But it’s also what trips you up after you’ve been burned.

Maybe a friend constantly lets you down. A leader or organization you respect turns out to be different from what they portray themselves to be. A spouse cheats on you. A family member betrays you. You’re becoming exhausted by other people’s choices and starting to question your own discernment. And you’re wondering, If God let this happen, can He even be trusted?

Lysa TerKeurst understands. That’s why she wrote her new book, I Want to Trust You, but I Don’t, which is setting the tone for an entire season of conversations about trust on Therapy & Theology.

Through each episode, Lysa, Jim and Joel will give you the scriptural and therapeutic wisdom you need to feel safe enough to connect deeply with people who are trustworthy, process the doubts you have about God, and find the courage to walk into the future full of hope and possibility.

Episode 1 drops on September 23, 2024 … We’ll see you then!
