Dr. Robin Stern joins us to talk about a subject you've been asking for specifically, and that's gaslighting. So today, we're talking about the far-reaching effects of manipulative psychological, and emotional abuse. Robin says, "Gaslighting undermines your confidence and self-esteem, robs you of your sense of self, and is often so subtle that you don't realize it's happening. It can cause you to question your own memory, perception, and sanity, and to feel powerless, helpless, and out of control."

It's part three of [Formed.] and if you missed last week with Lee Cummings or earlier this week with Ian Simkins, listen as soon as you're finished with today's episode. Today, my good friend, Addison Bevere joins us to talk about what to do when it feels like you've been abandoned by God. We'll also talk about why we expect God to sound like the accuser, and what it takes to move from self-actualization to surrender. Here's a quick bio on Addison: he is the COO of Messenger International, an organization that impacts millions of people in over 150 countries through its various initiatives, and he serves as the co-founder of SonsAndDaughters.tv.

It's week two of [Formed.] and if you missed last week with Lee Cummings, listen as soon as you're finished with today's episode. This week, we have a double-header, and today, my new friend Ian Simkins is here to talk about developing critical thinking skills, why echo chambers are killing us, why knowledge without wisdom leads to arrogance and the importance of embracing mystery in pain. Ian is a writer and the Lead Pastor of Teaching and Vision at a beautiful church called The Bridge just outside of Nashville, TN. Of note, Ian is an excellent follow on Instagram. He writes regularly about spiritual formation, emotional health, and personal growth. Follow him @iansimkins.

[Formed.] is back, and this week, we're joined by my friend Lee Cummings, who's here to talk about self-care versus self-obsession, how spiritual slow-drift happens, and why Jesus isn't your life coach. After the overwhelmingly positive response to [Formed.] in January and February, with tens of thousands of you tuning in, I realized that this is a specific focus I want to delve deeper into on the podcast. Joining us this time will be not only Lee Cummings but also my friends Ian Simkins and Addison Bevere.
