Welcome to Restore the Glory Podcast.

My name is Jake Kim.

And I'm Bob Chutes.

We're two Catholic therapists sharing what we've learned personally and professionally to help you on the journey of restoration.

Bob, good to be with you again.

We're continuing on in our series here about the anatomy of a wound.

We started with an introduction episode where we broke down the anatomy of a wound and then we went

and spent an episode there talking specifically about wounds and you broke down for us the seven deadly wounds and and now today we're picking up in the third episode which is going to be about beliefs and

Bob remind us of that concentric circle diagram maybe paint a picture for us for that

again to help people see it in their mind.

Yeah so picture three concentric circles and picture this being even though the heart

isn't a circle.

Picture this is being the inner circle being the heart and the next two circles being the barriers around the heart.

And so where we're wounded in our hearts,

which our hearts are made for love,

we're wounded where we have an experience

of the absence of love either rejection abandonment

whatever those are and then we form beliefs around those experiences and

those beliefs actually are what keep us bound up in pain and those

that's the second circle and those beliefs are based in falsehood.

And that's the second circle and beliefs are both identity lies and judgments.

I think we're going to talk about identity lies this time and judgments next time.
