Description

So much of modern church culture encourages us to hide.

Hide our struggles. Hide our doubts. Hide the messy, complicated truth of being human.

But Jesus never invited us into a sanitized faith. He called us into something real.

In today’s episode, I explore the next mark of an Emotionally Healthy Culture: Creating a Church Where It’s Safe to Be Human.

We’ll unpack five countercultural practices that dismantle toxic judgment, challenge our compulsion to fix others, and build a community that mirrors the love of Jesus.

You’ll hear stories, examples, and frameworks that will help you…

  • Build emotional safety into your leadership core.

  • Develop a high level of differentiation as a spiritual leader.

  • Create a church culture that invites people to come out of hiding and into the light.

This isn’t a side issue. It’s central to deep discipleship.

Let’s stop pretending—and start building churches where people experience the grace of God, not just hear about it.
