November 9, 2026
00:00

Drs. Greg and Erin Smalley interview John James, former lead singer of Newsboys, about overcoming an abusive childhood, his father’s dramatic conversion that led their family to Jesus, and John’s ongoing healing from abandonment, insecurity, and regret. If you or someone you know has made mistakes, if you have secrets, or if you are constantly looking for validation through the things you do -- you'll get a lot from this discussion. The Smalleys then discuss practical strategies for dividing household “mental load,” addressing mismatched sexual desire, and answer a new mom’s question about a disengaged husband.
