Bridges, Not Walls: Loving Your Adult Child Through the Tension of Truth


Listen Later

When your adult child walks away from the faith—or chooses a path that feels deeply at odds with what they were raised to believe—how do you respond as a Christian parent?


In this heartfelt opening episode of our new series, Holding On and Letting Go, Ellen Radcliff, LMFT shares her own powerful journey of coming out to her parents at 19, hitting rock bottom in a foreign country, and ultimately returning to faith through the steady, surrendered love of her mom and dad.


This episode is not just for parents of LGBTQ kids—it's for any parent walking through grief, fear, or spiritual disconnection with their adult child. Ellen offers deep encouragement, hard-won wisdom, and a reminder that there is a way to walk this road with your heart open and your conscience clear.


🛠️ In this episode, you'll hear about:


Ellen’s personal story of coming out and coming back


How her parents’ non-reactive, Spirit-led love made all the difference


How to hold space for your child without compromising your convictions
