You're probably not a serial killer. But the patterns that shape one run through all of us, at lower volume. In this episode, Dr. Greg traces antisocial patterns back to their source in everyday life — how we manage people, pray, and protect ourselves from being hurt again.
Key Topics:
Why the patterns that define serial killers aren't limited to serial killers — and how to see yourself honestly in that mirror
How omnipotent control can look like loyalty, competence, or even holiness — and what it's protecting underneath
What "magical penance" looks like when atonement becomes a form of control instead of real repair
Why prayer can become negotiation with God — and why that's a subtle form of magical thinking
How the "hardened heart" of Scripture isn't just Pharaoh — it's any wall quietly built against trust
How to meet the controlling parts of yourself with compassion instead of condemnation
