Episode When Your Soul Is Asking for Connection
Today's Scripture: Psalm 139:13–16
Have you ever found yourself reaching for your phone, looking for something to eat when you're not hungry, or compulsively checking things off your to-do list? Sometimes these are simply habits. But sometimes they're small signals from within—what I like to think of as your soul's bids for connection. In today's episode, we explore: *Why we are both wonderfully made and wounded—and what that means for how we relate to ourselves *How the Gottmans' concept of bids for connection applies to our inner lives *How to recognize the subtle ways your soul asks for attention *How to invite God's loving presence into the hidden places within you Go deeper: Explore The Secure Soul: Finding Inner Strength and Connection When Trust Doesn't Come Easy at TheSecureSoulBook.com.
