Why Do We Fall? And How Do We Get Back Up?

Pure Sex Radio

Why do we fall? This is a deep question and we can’t ever fully answer the “why” questions. But it’s worth the conversation.

In this episode, Stephen and I dive deep into the emotional and spiritual tangles that we all face. We begin by talking about the roots of our emotional programming and then move on to the emotional-spiritual connection and the complexities of stumbling and falling; it’s not just about sin. Emotional maturity is just as vital.

Finally, we aim to provide some practical wisdom for facing emotional pain and the power of community in our healing and recovery journey. Even though we fall, we can get back up!
