🎧 PART 3 (Final Part) — HEAL: Stop, Restore, Repeat? | The Wrong Words Podcast
Jeremiah 30:17 says it plainly: “I will restore health to you and your wounds I will heal.” In this final installment of the Heal series, Oliver Marcelle and Luon Dungee close the loop on a conversation that’s part theology, part psychology, and all practical. They push back on the idea that healing is always a long, drawn-out process — arguing instead that healing can be an immediate declaration (a stop) that we then reinforce or renew. Expect big pull-apart moments about choice, memory, reinforcement, and why we often overcomplicate what’s already been restored.
đź§ In this episode, we explore:
Why some traditions and scriptures present healing as an immediate act — and how that changes everything
The dangerous habit of turning “healing” into endless rehearsal of the wound
How acceptance, immediate repair (amends), and the daily renewals fit together — without turning healing into an excuse
When interventions (therapy, meds, support groups) reinforce healing versus when they become a substitute for it
📚 We unpack:
Jeremiah 30:17 and the Biblical pattern (Naaman dipping 7x) — immediate restoration with practical steps afterward
Four types of healing: physical, emotional/inner, spiritual/deliverance, and relational — and how each is rightly seen as reinforcement of a healed state
Four healing dimensions: mind & spirit, social & emotional, behavioral & lifestyle, and environment — and why “stop” precedes change
The 12-step echo: change people, places, and things — and how real change begins with a conscious stop
đź’Ą Key moments include:
The bandaid vs. healing distinction: medical care as reinforcement (helping the body get back to original)
A frank take on choices vs. consequences — can you “heal” from a deliberate choice? (Stop + decide + don’t repeat)
Why staying in the story often masquerades as “working on healing” — and a practical alternative: accept → repair → move
The liberating idea that healed doesn’t mean never needing renewal; it can mean choosing not to live in the wound
🛠️ You’ll walk away with:
A simple operational definition of heal: stop → accept → repair → leave it alone (and renew when necessary)
Tools to tell reinforcement from true healing so you stop rehearsing pain
Permission to treat healing as both a declaration and a practice — without weaponizing “I’m still healing” as an excuse
Conversation starters to test these ideas with partners, friends, or a counselor
