How should we think about breaking up? How do you go about it when you do?

In light of the Spooky Season, Nick and Robyn discuss horrible Psych experiments that press ethical boundaries. The First Episode of this two part series. Nick discusses the trauma and harm of a baby known as Little Albert as the experimenters try and condition this baby like Ivan Pavlov did to a dog. This Horrible and Horrifying experiment eventually was deemed unethical as it should have been.

The great debate that has been argued for thousands of years has come to A Couch Divided. Nature vs. Nurture is not an easy topic to tackle but, Nick and Robyn indeed attempt. Where does human responsibility begin and end? What have the sociologist and psychologist of the past theorized on this matter vs. what the bible has described this to be?

Very important topic! Nick and Robyn talk about self love from the biblical aspect to the complete and under destruction of the worlds definition of self love. In our society, how has self love completely discounted our neighbor and how has the love of God taken a backseat in our pursuit of pleasure, happiness and self indulgence?

This episode is a highly requested topic that we hope you enjoy. Nick and Robyn talk about honoring dishonorable parents, the types of tension that can be created in the immediate and extended families, generational curses and more.

In this episode Nick and Robyn in light of all the alien talk and pseudo spirituality out there, discuss the topic of superstitions and the psychology behind it. What does the bible say about superstitions and should we as christians give ourselves over to them?

Nick and Robyn along with a very special guest(Robyn's husband) James Baird have a round table discussion about life and emotions as ministers of the Lord. With this month being a secular celebration of pride and sin, we thought it be a timely discussion.

A special episode of ACD. Nick gives you one of his audio blogs that he wrote about self deprecation, comedy and the consuming nature of verbal self harm one can do to themselves that can sling you into complete depression with what seems to be no way out.

Nick and Robyn continue their talk about bad theology and sharing stories from when they first got saved and how much false presuppositions about God created so much angst and anxiety in their lives. This is an important episode on just how important discipleship really is.
