Overcoming Scrupulosity: Finding Freedom from Excessive Guilt and Fear

Do you constantly feel like you're falling short, second-guessing your every decision, or burdened by guilt—even when you haven’t done anything wrong?

In this episode of ChapsWife: Helping Military Wives Grow in Christ Through Military Life, we dive into the topic of scrupulosity—a struggle many Christian military wives face when their conscience becomes overly sensitive, leading to fear and self-condemnation. This can be especially difficult in the midst of the ever-changing and often unpredictable military lifestyle.

Together, we’ll explore what scrupulosity looks like from a biblical perspective, how it distorts our view of God’s grace, and practical steps to find freedom and peace in Christ. Whether you’re grappling with perfectionism, fear of sinning, or an overwhelming need to “get it right” in your role as a wife, mother, or military spouse, this episode is for you.

Learn how to rest in God’s love, embrace His grace, and stop striving for impossible standards in a season where so much feels out of your control.

Tune in for encouragement, biblical truth, and tools to help you find freedom and peace in your faith journey as a military wife. If you would like to purchase the book used as a resource, you can locate it here
