Exploring How Our Childhood Experiences with Our Parents Shape Our View of God
Show Notes

It's really amazing to see how much of our childhood experiences with our parents shape how we view God when we become adults. 

If our parents were uninvolved, harsh, or absent, then we will tend to see God the same way. If our parents were involved, loving, and present, then we can make an easy transition to seeing God be the same way. 

The key to understanding God, however, is not through our experiences with how our parents raised us, but rather through filtering those experiences through the truths found in God's Word. It is in and through his Word that He chooses to reveal Himself to us. 

On today's episode, Dr. O'Hare and I discuss:

 - how parents influence our view of God,

 - how parenting styles play a role in how we view God,

 - how we develop healthy and unhealthy attachments to God and others, and 

 - some ways to develop a secure attachment style. 

If you want to understand the truth about how God relates to us as his children, and how parents involvement in our lives influences that, this is a show you'll want to tune in to.
