This week on Win Today, I’m joined by Kris Vallotton for a raw conversation about how well-meaning but bad theology is distorting our view of emotional health and creating systems of self-oppression inside the Church. From the stigma surrounding therapy and medication to the over-spiritualization of trauma, Kris pulls no punches. Together, we explore why real transformation can’t just be personal—it must be systemic. Because if the environment around you is sick, your health will always hit a ceiling. If you’ve ever been shamed for struggling, blamed for being anxious, or silenced when asking hard questions about healing, this conversation will set you free. It’s time to confront the beliefs that keep us stuck—and recover a theology that makes room for the whole person: body, soul, and spirit.
