Welcome to the first of the faith-based episodes! This corner of the podcast is designed for the believers. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints so the flavor and language of the content here will be with that context but I invite you to please translate my context into whatever your faith tradition is, and leave aside what doesn’t resonate with you.

In these episodes I am both healing myself by being more open about my faith and I’m also identifying all the ways narcissists have distorted sacred gospel principles. If you want to undistort these principles while opening yourself up to more healing and access to the love and light of Jesus Christ, these episodes are for you.

Today’s episode addresses the basic commandment to “honour thy father and mother.”

We will cover:

• My religious upbringing

• What narcissism and religion looks like

• What the commandment means according to the narc

• What the commandment could mean that might be healing for you

• How to “honor” a parent while also protecting ourselves from abuse, if that is what you want

Everything you will hear is the gospel according to Laura Bytheway. These concepts, ideas and beliefs I have developed over several years of prayer, experience, my own healing and working with others, so please find the answers for yourself that works for you.

This is my offering and I hope it offers healing and peace to you. Thank you for listening.
