If God feels close one moment and distant the next, it may not be your faith β it may be attachment.
In this episode, Heather sits down with Dr. Sam Landa, licensed professional counselor and host of the God Attachment Healing Podcast, to unpack how attachment styles form and how they shape the way we relate to God.
Together, they explore how early experiences with parents, trauma, and even church culture can quietly influence trust, safety, and our ability to hear God's voice clearly. This conversation brings language, clarity, and compassion to struggles many Christians carry but don't know how to name.
This episode is for you if you love God but still feel anxious, unsure, unworthy, or confused in your relationship with Him β especially if trusting God feels harder than it "should."
You'll gain:
A clear explanation of the four attachment styles
Insight into why attachment patterns affect hearing God's voice
Understanding of how trauma and church hurt shape trust with God
Hope that attachment styles can change through healing relationships
Practical encouragement for experiencing God as safe, near, and loving
