Listen "134 - Flagellation Nation: Whips, Guilt, and Grace"
Episode Synopsis
Shelby, Rita, Ridge, and Joan pull up chairs in the barn studio for a deep, sometimes uncomfortable dive into flagellation: the ancient (and modern) practice of deliberately making ourselves suffer for spiritual reasons.
It’s four married people wrestling with guilt, grace, self-worth, and whether God actually wants us miserable or just thinks we’re hilarious when we try.
Raw, reverent, ridiculous, and real.
