Understanding Manipulation


Listen Later

Is manipulation just a personality trait, or is it fundamentally antithetical to a life of faith? In today’s video, we’re diving deep into the mechanics of manipulation from a Christian perspective to help you protect your peace and honor God in your relationships.

We often recognize when a conversation feels "off," but we can’t always name why. By looking at the heart of the Gospel, we see a God of invitation, not coercion. I break down why manipulation—at any level—is a direct contradiction to the way we are called to love one another.

What You’ll Learn:

* The Three Tiers of Manipulation: A framework for identifying how control scales from subtle influence to overt pressure.

* The Biblical Contrast: Understanding why the "God of the Bible" never uses the tactics common in manipulative circles.

* Real-World Roleplays: I walk through several common scenarios to help you hear the "hidden scripts" of manipulation in real-time.
