God Attachment HealingAuthor: Sam
Hi everyone! Welcome to the God Attachment Healing Podcast. I'm your host, Sam Landa. This podcast is dedicated to Christians who want to understand why they relate to God in the way they do. I explore how our early childhood relationship with our parents--specifically with how they met or did not meet our needs--influences how we relate to ourselves, the church, and to God. Because much of the pains and struggles of life are intertwined in these three areas, I discuss with my guests how we can find healing from the pain, confusion, doubt, and anger experienced in these relationships. If you're interested in learning more about your attachment style and how to heal from the pain youve experienced in the relationships mentioned above, then this podcast is for you. Welcome to the show! I'm happy you're here! Language: en-us Genres: Christianity, Health & Fitness, Mental Health, Religion & Spirituality Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

What If Rejection Is Teaching You Who You Are: My Response to a Listener
Episode 118
Wednesday, 15 April, 2026
Send Me Questions on AttachmentRejection doesn’t just hurt. For someone with anxious attachment, it can hijack your story about who you are. We got a listener question from Jameson in North Carolina: he asked a girl out, she turned him down, and now he keeps seeing her at church groups. The hardest part isn’t the no, it’s the constant reminder and the lingering feelings that won’t switch off.We talk through what anxious attachment does after rejection: the obsession with “why,” the fear of abandonment, and the reflex to assume you caused it because you’re not good enough. Then we get practical about next steps that actually help you heal. Sometimes the mature choice is to treat her like a friend and let time soften the feelings. Other times you need real boundaries and a season of space because proximity keeps reopening the wound. We also explore why repeated rejection can push people into passivity and how continuing to ask people out can be part of growth, not desperation.Because this is a faith-based podcast, we go deeper into God attachment too. When dating discouragement hits, it’s easy to think God is disappointed in you or withholding something. Instead, we practice honest prayer, grounded self-worth in Christ, and leaning into encouraging community so your confidence isn’t decided by one person’s answer. If this connects with you, subscribe, share it with a friend who’s stuck in the spiral, and leave a review with the biggest takeaway you’re working on.Support the showFOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM:@godattachmenthealingFOLLOW ME ON FACEBOOK:God Attachment HealingMY HOPE FOR YOUI hope these episodes bring you closer to Christ and encourage you in your walk with Him.
