Hey everyone and welcome to a new month here on MercyTalk! For the last few years, the topic of shame has pushed its way to the forefront of our social media feeds and book covers. From the oldest to the youngest among us, shame is no respecter of persons and can be traced all the way back to the garden. This November join us as we explore the ways shame has tried to embed itself into the narrative of our lives as we focus on the place it all starts…the mind. Also, in this episode… 

• Why shame strives to undermine God’s creation of goodness and beauty 
• The self-reinforcing cycle of shame 
• The way our brains work in regard to shame
