For The Person With A Complicated Relationship With Their Dad | Ep. 10
Jun 12, 2023 Season 1 Episode 10
Grace & Alex Tran

With Father's Day around the corner... we want to specifically dedicate this (very vulnerable) episode to those of you who have a complicated relationship with your dad.

In many cultures especially (such as ours as Asian Americans), it’s normal to feel unsure and ill-equipped to navigate the confusing and complex “love-hate” tensions we often feel with our parents... especially our dads. (Ever wonder why the term “daddy issues” exists?)

But it makes it that much harder, too, when your social media feed gets flooded with "I love you, Dad!" posts on Father's Day.

So join us today, as we share openly and candidly about:

  • The biblical importance of a father’s role
  • How our personal relationships with our dads have shaped us (both negatively and positively) and our relationships with God
  • Our deep-rooted father wounds, including the struggles we have even to this day
  • What has practically helped us find healing, hope, and restoration in the midst of all of it

So, if you have a complicated relationship with your dad...

This one’s for you.

We hope that this very REAL and raw conversation brings you comfort - so you know that you are not alone.

We pray that this encourages and helps you to be able to better see your dad through Jesus’ eyes - and to love your dad with Jesus’ love for each and every one of us. ❤️
