Summary
Welcome to a new series of Therapy & Theology: "Let's Stop Avoiding This Conversation: 6 Topics Women Have Big Questions About."
It’s a series you don’t want to miss … an invitation for you to come as you are with your hurts, your questions, your willingness to learn and your desire to heal.
Join Lysa TerKeurst; her licensed professional counselor, Jim Cress; and Proverbs 31 Ministries' Director of Theological Research, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, for a conversation about scriptures taken out of context and sometimes used to devalue and silence women. They will also tackle questions you have around pornography, emotional abuse, submission, boundaries, and identifying destructive patterns in relationships, causing so many of us to feel crazy and paralyzed by relational dysfunctions.
Join us for six weekly episodes, starting October 20, 2022.

| 0:00.0 | It's challenging to be a dearly loved daughter of God and, at the same time, a poorly treated |
| 0:13.9 | woman by another person. During the writing of my newest book Good Boundaries and Good Bies, |
| 0:19.3 | I realized this on such a personal level. I met with my counselor Jim Crest to work on healing |
| 0:26.4 | from some of my own experiences. I spent hours working through the impact of the trauma I'd |
| 0:32.4 | walk through. I want to be a woman walking in victory, healed, educated, and equipped to have |
| 0:40.2 | the conversations that need to be had. I don't want to make noise. I want to make a difference. |
| 0:47.2 | I've learned through the years that people connect through their similarities, but they really |
| 0:51.5 | connect through their brokenness. And what better way to connect with women where they are at |
| 0:57.4 | than to start with where we're broken? Where we're misunderstood, devalued, blamed for ending |

| 1:36.6 | pornography a good bit in our house. It made me believe that those images were what men wanted |
| 1:42.8 | above all I inquire about emotional abuse from people I want to help me. They often say I'm not |
| 1:49.0 | being abused because I have no bruises. I reached a toxic organization and saw dysfunctional |
| 1:53.6 | behavior from my leaders on a regular basis, but I was afraid to speak. I feel as if I have to prove |
| 1:59.0 | myself worthy of my role due to being a woman. Now is the time to address what needs to be addressed |
| 2:04.8 | from both a therapeutic and theological standpoint. Dr. Joel Mutamale and licensed professional |
| 2:11.3 | counsel Jim Cress and I are going to tackle scriptures taken out of context and sometimes used |
