Scripture for Your Inner Outcasts

Souls and Hearts 280 Episodes Jul 22, 2026

This podcast explores how Jesus reaches out to the outcasts in the Gospels and applies that to the inner parts of ourselves that feel marginalized or rejected. It uses Internal Family Systems and other parts work approaches, grounded in a Catholic understanding of the human person, to help listeners integrate and heal. Each episode invites the Good News from daily Mass readings to shine on inner lost sheep, prodigals, lepers, and other wounded parts. The goal is to grow in accepting love, loving oneself, and loving God and neighbor wholeheartedly.
