Can psychology and Christianity truly coexist, or are they irreconcilable at their core? Join me as I tackle this provocative question and challenge the very foundation of what it means to be a "Christian psychologist." With a background that shifted from liberal ideologies to a firm Christian worldview, I share my unique perspective as a self-proclaimed heretic psychologist. This episode questions the compatibility of secular psychological theories with biblical principles, highlighting the philosophical nature of psychology and its often unproven claims. By scrutinizing the concept of Christian psychology, I aim to reveal the contradictions between these two worlds and suggest a re-evaluation of where we seek our truths.

What if the parenting advice we've trusted for decades is actually leading us astray? On this episode of "Because I Said So," I challenge the modern parenting mantras that have become gospel since the 1960s. Born from a period of societal upheaval, these psychological theories have encouraged us to sideline the wisdom of our elders in favor of expert opinions lacking real-world experience. Join me as I share my own journey from a liberal college student to a conservative advocate for traditional parenting, exploring how this shift has impacted families, including my own, and questioning whether these expert-led paradigms have contributed more harm than good.

What if the mainstream narrative about mental health is all wrong? Join me as I challenge the conventional wisdom that conditions like depression and anxiety are biological malfunctions. In this eye-opening episode, we dig into the financial motivations behind these misconceptions and explore how emotional states can become deeply ingrained habits. Through candid conversations with psychiatrists, I reveal why understanding the origins of these emotional states might not be as crucial as recognizing them as changeable habits.

Is modern parenting doing more harm than good? In this episode, I unravel the complex layers of how today's parenting practices may be inadvertently extending childhood well into the adult years. I take a hard look at the practices that label typical two-year-old behaviors as disorders and challenge the authority of parents, replacing time-tested discipline with emotion-driven reactions. By sharing my insights from inside the psychology profession and from my own creative musings, this episode proposes a reevaluation of parenting norms and mental health rhetoric. Join me as we confront these critical issues head-on, advocating for a return to principles that instill resilience and respect within the family fabric.

Could the ideas of Dr. Jordan Petersen be leading us down a treacherous path? Join me as I scrutinize the philosophies of a figure who has captivated millions with his interpretations of the Bible, the question of God's existence, and the application of Darwinian evolution to human development. In our latest episode, we dissect the 'Introduction to the Idea of God', where I outline my reservations about the coherence of Petersen's thought and the risks his teachings may pose. As we tread through these intellectually charged waters, you'll gain a fresh perspective on the undercurrents that may be shaping modern thought in ways that are not immediately apparent.
