Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
Hello, welcome to the podcast of health and healing in the areas of addiction and abuse, with Michael. My passion and interest started with becoming aware that many of us have childhood traumas that we carry into our adult lives, but we didn't have them addressed or never acknowledged that we had an addiction or a mental illness. Some of the abuses, we suffered were slight or verbal that we just wrote off, other abuses were kept in secret for many years. Now we want to expose those lie-based beliefs, through tools and partnering with the Holy Spirit to help us heal those traumas and Illnesses to become whole. Hurt people hurt people, so we must seek ways to heal so that we can assist others in their healing processes. Disclaimer: * I am not a doctor or professional therapist. However, I am licensed and an ordained Minister, who's interest was piqued as it related to my personal journey and struggles with addictions and abuses that found their way into every aspect of my life unknowingly. God knows I'm a work in progress. Come along as we heal together.
Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
Coping with Shame and Guilt
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you or someone you've known asked the question, "Why?" or "Why me?"
These massive topics are too big and complex for us to be under any illusions. Psychology classifies guilt as an emotion; moral emotions are classified as such because they presumably play a key role in fostering moral behavior.
Guilt is something we feel—shame attacks our identity.
Theologians aren't necessarily in disagreement. the feeling of guilt is important biblically and theologically. But this is only half the story.
The original "sin" left creation with an inborn disability and polluted. While it is clear that guilt focuses on the offense, shame focuses on the offender.
Not all psychologists hold the biblical view and advocate for modern psychology and are in direct conflict with theological teachings about how to deal with sin. The only real hope for an offender of the law of God is to turn to Christ for forgiveness. Guilt and shame have been nailed to the cross.
