We’re honored to welcome Richard Beck to Pod Have Mercy this week! Richard is a psychologist, author, and professor who has spent decades exploring the intersection of mental health, spirituality, and justice. His work is groundbreaking, particularly in the areas of prison ministry and the way our spiritual lives intersect with our emotional well-being.
In this episode, Richard shares his profound insights on how our faith can be a source of healing and transformation, especially in some of the most challenging environments. As a leader in psychological and theological reflection, he’s spent years researching how people can heal emotionally and spiritually—especially those on the margins. His work on the psychology of forgiveness, trauma, and redemption will leave you thinking long after the episode ends.
Richard is the author of several books, including "Unclean" and "The Psychology of Christian Spirituality," and his blog, Experimental Theology, is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of faith and mental health.
