Bandaids for Broken Bones (S13E56)

About this episode

This episode discusses the struggle of addressing deep emotional wounds with superficial solutions and features insights from a book by Eugene Peterson.

Are you tired of being so tired? Wondering why you keep trying to feel better but wind up feeling the same, or worse? Why the things you’re doing, the things the world says will help, don’t actually help? This episode looks at our recurring problem of treating big wounds with bandaids. We also talk about my #6 book I read in 2022, Eugene Peterson’s Run With the Horses. Scriptures: So, Jeremiah, if you’re worn out in this footrace with men, what makes you think you can race against horses? Jeremiah 12:5, The Message If you falter in a time of trouble, how small is your strength! Proverbs 24:10, NIV They offer superficial treatments for my people’s mortal wound.They give assurances of peace when there is no peace.
