Do you know the work of my friend Debi Peck?
She wrote a particularly excellent book called The Hijacked Conscience — a book about a form of OCD called religious scrupulosity — which has become a must-read resource for pastors, and is illuminating for anyone who goes to church. I am fairly certain that even if Debi's struggles aren't the same as your own, you will know a fellow-Christian who has faced the same challenges and will find her wise and kind and brave account very helpful.
Recently Debi's son Brenton has launched himself upon the unsuspecting world as a podcaster — Yay! Go, Brenton! — and the very first person he wanted to interview was his mother.
Here they are, settling down for a chat on the subject of scrupulosity — when faith feels like fear.
