What happens when the challenges of the mind meet the steadfastness of faith? Join me, Jason Hopkins, as I recount my journey through the emotional storms of PTSD and rediscovered memories in this compelling episode. Drawing strength from 2 Timothy 4, I'll share how my early married life and shift from criminology to psychology led to a fulfilling ministry career. Hear about my impactful work at a residential treatment center and the profound inspiration I found at East Hill Church under Pastor Ted Roberts, which played a pivotal role in my healing and spiritual development.
But life’s path is rarely straightforward. The joyous news of becoming a father was tempered by my ongoing struggle with mental health issues, culminating in a gut-wrenching diagnosis of dissociative identity disorder (DID) following a troubling incident with my brother Jeramy. Through the support of therapy and unwavering faith, I aim to merge these fragmented parts of myself. Listen as I navigate the intersections of family life, personal growth, and spiritual resilience, all while seeking forgiveness and closure from past wounds, especially with my estranged mother. This episode is a raw and honest look at the power of faith and therapy in overcoming life's most daunting hurdles.
