Landscapes of the Soul w/ Dr. Geoff & Cyd Holsclaw - Ep. 145

Geoff & Cyd Holsclaw

This week, I’m excited to introduce you to my Doctor of Ministry cohort professors and mentors, Geoff & Cyd Holsclaw. Cyd is a spiritual director and professional certified coach in private practice. Geoff is a professor and worship pastor with a PhD in religious studies. Together, they’ve written two books. Their second book releases August 5th and is available for pre-order now.

Passionate about the integration of spiritual formation and trauma-informed practice, they recently launched The Center for Embodied Faith, where they offer “attachment-based, neuroscience-informed, and Jesus-centered tools for discipleship and spiritual formation.”

Their episode is dropping today as the last interview of the summer on the Brave Marriage Podcast. If you like what you hear, you can find more conversations with them and others on the Attaching to God Podcast. Come, listen in, and you’ll get a sense of what it’s like to sit in class with them!

Attachment Styles = Landscapes (a visual aid as you listen in):

  • Secure = Pasture

  • Avoidant (sometimes called Dismissive) = Desert

  • Anxious-Ambivalent (sometimes called Preoccupied) = Jungle

  • Disorganized = War Zone
