NOTES

Why is trusting God-or even other people-so hard? For many of us, the struggle begins in childhood. The bonds we form early in life shape how safe, secure, and connected we feel-and how willing we are to rely on others or lean into God's promises. In Deeper Than Belief, Melinda Cathey combines decades of experience as a mental health counselor, missionary, and educator, to explore the deep roots of trust. Through compelling stories, Scripture, and practical insights, she explains how broken trust can become a cycle of generational dysfunction-and how God can intervene to restore hope, security, and faith. You'll discover how attachment shapes your relationships, the common obstacles that keep you from fully trusting, and the transformative power of experiencing God's character and presence in your life. You'll also learn how to cultivate "earned security" in your relationships, enabling you to connect more authentically with God and others. If you've ever wrestled with fear, doubt, or isolation, this book will meet you where you are and show you a path to trust that is deeper than belief-because true faith is not just knowing about God; it's trusting Him with your heart. Deeper Than Belief invites you to uncover why trusting God-and others-can be so difficult and shows you how healing your attachment wounds can open the way to genuine faith and deeper connection
