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.
