Mental Health in the church and why beating children doesn't work

Episode 3 dives into the mental health consequences of how we parent and discipline children, especially within church and faith-based households. We unpack how fear, shame, and physical punishment are often normalized as “biblical,” and how those practices shape anxiety, depression, emotional repression, and trauma later in life. This episode challenges harmful teachings around obedience and control, explores what healthy discipline actually looks like, and centers the mental well-being of children and families. A necessary conversation for parents, caregivers, and anyone unpacking the impact of church culture on their mental health.
