Listen "Made for Connection: God's Design and the Healing of Intimacy"
Episode Synopsis
Many people find themselves longing for intimacy but pulling away or sabotaging if it comes close. Today Dr. Carol explores what it means to have an "intimacy disorder." You'll hear real-life vignettes of people struggling in this way, and we'll unpack how early experiences, attachment wounds, and the brain's survival wiring shape our capacity for connection. We'll look at what neuroscience reveals about how these pathways form, and how they can be rewired and healed. Theology and brain science together tell a remarkable story. We were created in the image of a relational God, made for connection that reflects His nature. As we face the broken stories in our sexual and relational histories, and as God's presence meets us there, the old patterns that once protected us can begin to transform. Discover what sexual and relational goodness can look like when intimacy becomes healed and whole.
