Before we release the final episode of the Made for People Podcast, we’re pressing pause for something a little different.
What if the story of your marriage is also the story of your friendships?
What if the most important thing your kids need from you isn’t a perfect home—but a model of deep, committed friendship?
What if we can’t truly understand ourselves until we tell our stories? In this episode of the Made for People podcast, I sit down with Christian psychologist and author Curt Thompson to explore how friendship, vulnerability, and storytelling shape our mental and spiritual well-being. We discuss what a mentally healthy mind looks like, why we have a deep desire to be known, and how placing our lives in vulnerable relationships can bring clarity and healing.
What if friendship plays a bigger role in our lives—and in our faith—than we’ve ever realized? In this episode of the Made for People Podcast, I sit down with Rebecca McLaughlin, author of Confronting Christianity and No Greater Love, to explore how friendship is at the heart of evangelism. Drawing from her latest book, Rebecca unpacks how Jesus redefined love, why friendship is more than just a social luxury, and how deep relationships can be a powerful witness in a skeptical world.
