Restore The Glory Podcast

Dr. Bob and Jake discuss the power of a father's love and his capacity to wound. Fathers plant deep seeds in their children's hearts with what they said or didn't say and what they did or didn't do. The restoration of wounds from our fathers is life-changing.

After recapping how Peter's pride, shame, and false self have been stripped away, Dr. Bob and Jake discuss the amazing transformation in Peter after his healing encounter with Jesus and being filled with the Holy Spirit.

After explaining the meaning and power of shame, Dr. Bob and Jake reflect on the restorative encounter between Jesus and Peter on the shores of the Sea of Galilee.

This week's episode goes deeper into the life of St. Peter. Through personal stories and experiences, Bob and Jake help us appreciate the value of seeing ourselves as we truly are because in vulnerability, as we carry the cross, our hearts move deeper through the journey of healing.

Our search for identity and validation is most perfectly rooted in our relationship with Him.

Vows can significantly affect the way we do life and can go unnoticed since we often perceive them as normal and necessary.
