Jesus models touch before healing

Today we’re talking about how dads can make their wife and kids feel loved at a cellular level.

In the Gospels, Jesus often touched people before He healed them. Lepers. The blind. Children. Touch came first—then transformation.

Modern science is now confirming what Scripture has always shown: a simple, intentional hug releases oxytocin, lowers stress, and builds emotional safety. Especially when it comes from a dad.

If you’ve ever felt unsure what to say when your child is overwhelmed—or how to connect with your wife without fixing or performing—this episode is for you.

Sometimes the most spiritual leadership doesn’t sound like anything at all.

Sometimes it looks like staying close.
