In support of his new book, "Lies My Therapist Told Me", Dr. Greg Gifford joins Todd Friel today for a special Wretched Radio episode. "Lies My Therapist Told Me" is available for purchase today!



Segment 1:



• 1 in 4 Americans are labeled with mental illness—without blood tests or brain scans.



• Psychiatry is built on subjective symptoms, not scientific evidence.



• SSRIs are prescribed as a shot in the dark, despite unclear causes or outcomes.



Segment 2:



• Scripture defines the mind as spiritual; the brain is physical—a crucial distinction.



• Secular therapy targets the brain, but only God’s Word renews the mind (Romans 12:2).



• Outsourcing soul care to unbelievers denies biblical anthropology and gospel hope.



Segment 3:



• ADHD is often diagnosed to explain immaturity or secure school funding—not science.



• Written evaluations, not lab tests, lead to life-altering labels and medications.



• Ask hard questions: Is your child undisciplined, or just not designed for 6-hour desks?



Segment 4:



• Lies My Therapist Told Me stays boldly biblical—even with a secular publisher.



• The real solution to mental pain isn’t treatment—it’s transformation through salvation.



• You’re not broken beyond repair—Christ frees you from sin, shame, and bad labels.
