So, what is this podcast about? This is a podcast dedicated to helping Christians understand why they relate to God in the way they do. I explore how our early childhood relationship with our parents--specifically with how they met or did not meet our needs--influences how we relate to ourselves, the church, and to God. On today's episode, I discuss the purpose of starting this podcast. I share with you some personal experiences that taught me about how I related to God and how much of it was influenced by my relationship with my parents. Seeing how my parents related to God and the church set a foundation for me to build on, but there were a lot of lessons I had to learn on my own to understand how I related to God, the church, and myself.  I'll be discussing the following:  - What is attachment theory and who developed it? - What role do our parents have in our understanding of relationships?  - How their influence in understanding those relationships also impacts the way we relate to God - How to understand and rewrite your story - Lastly, I'll provide some practical steps you can take to understand your attachment style to better your relationship with God.  If you have any questions or comments on this topic, feel free to  email me at [email protected].
