About this episode

Jeff gives an overview of the four types of core wounds. He explains the lies that we believe, how they impact our relationships and behaviors, and concludes with a few simple steps we can take to start the healing process.

When suffering from a core wound, the most important first step is identifying it. Then, you can invite God to help you start the healing process.
