Our recent Soul Ties podcast sparked a number of fascinating questions from viewers and listeners. In this podcast, John and Allen respond to as many as possible—including where this topic is addressed in Scripture, whether we can have a soul tie with our spouse, what unhealthy attachment looks like, how to break a soul tie on behalf of another, and if it's possible to have a soul tie with an activity, celebrity, fictional character, or even a person who has died.
Show Notes: The earlier Soul Ties podcast is Episode 886: Soul Ties—What They Are & How to Break Them (July 26, 2026). Listen to the Pause App here. Find out more about the Blue Letter Bible resource at blueletterbible.org. The books referenced are Becoming Attached by Robert Karen, A Grief Observed by C. S. Lewis, Lament for a Son by Nicholas Wolterstorff, and Dark Night of the Soul by St. John of the Cross.
