Learning to Trust Again
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We don't usually call it a trust problem. We call it being private. Being careful. Being realistic after getting burned. But somewhere between childhood and now, most of us made a fist around our hearts, one finger at a time, one disappointment at a time.
In this episode, Jaclyn gets personal about the slow closing of her own hand: a soccer ball to the face, a relationship that ended in public humiliation, friendships in ministry that came and went, and what it cost her kids to watch it happen. She traces the difference between a wound and what comes after it and how she started, finger by finger, opening her hand again.
This one's about the foundation trust is actually built on, and why the people worth letting in are always on the other side of an open hand.
