    Our Hopes and Concerns for Psychotherapy

    This week, Jake and Bob discuss the current state of therapy and its increasing popularity in society. They explore the factors contributing to the rise of interest in therapy, highlight the importance of philosophy and theology in therapy training, and reflect on the importance of objective truth in the healing process. 

     

    Key Points:

    • Therapy has become increasingly popular in society, with more people seeking it out and discussing it openly.
    • The breakdown of trust in various institutions, including the church, has contributed to the rise in therapy as a means of finding support and guidance.
    • A solid foundation in philosophy, anthropology, and theology is essential in therapy training to provide a proper understanding of the human person and their needs.
    • Subjective experiences without objective truth and care can be dangerous, and therapy should aim to integrate both subjective and objective realities.
    • Resilience and the ability to repair are part of human nature and therefore are important aspects of therapy and personal growth.
    • The sacraments provide structure and guidance in relationships and can contribute to healing and growth. 
    • Therapy should be situated within the context of faith and community, and not isolated from them.
    • Discernment is crucial when considering a career in therapy, and motivations should be rooted in a genuine call rather than popularity or personal dysfunction.
    • Healthy Christian communities have the potential to provide healing and support, and may reduce the need for therapy.
    • Jesus should be the centerpiece of the healing journey.

    Divorce (Part 1) w/ Joey Pontarelli

    This week, Jake and Bob are joined by Joey Pontarelli, the founder and president of the ministry “Restored”. After finding a lack of help after his parents’ divorce, Joey decided to begin ministry with “Restored” to offer practical guidance and support for teens and young adults from broken families. Jake, Bob, and Joey discuss the wounds that come from divorce, their personal experiences, and practical advice on how to respond to this woundedness. 

    Key Points

    • If there isn’t any transformation in the wounds, then the sins we fall into, as a remedy, make sense. They don’t work, but they make sense. 

    • We often don’t want to face these wounds, so we try to outrun them. But we can’t outrun our wounds. We’re made for more than that.

    • The Lord understands why you struggle with each particular sin. It doesn’t surprise or scandalize Him. And He loves you where you are. 

    • Divorce is a wound of broken love. So the medicine can only work when you reach the wound. Love is what heals. 

    • Relationship with God is the primary healing element and agent. Give God your attention, quality time, and trust Him. 

    • Consume great content that involves trauma and healing. Seek out coaching - a therapist, spiritual director, or mentor. Have a good community and deep relationships.

    • For a healthy marriage - spend time with a couple who has a healthy marriage. 

    • The temptation in marriage is to harden your heart and to close yourself off. But instead, we are called to tenderness and vulnerability.
