On a recent episode of Faith with Katie, host Katie Souza sat down with Dr. Mark Chironna for a powerful conversation on healing from emotional wounds and moving forward from past trauma.
The discussion centered around the widespread issue of believers who are stuck in a cycle of emotional languishing—feeling unfulfilled, anxious, and burdened by unresolved pain. Both Souza and Chironna emphasized that unless the inner man is healed, the church cannot fully step into revival or restoration.

The interview explored how biblical principles offer a clear path to healing and freedom.
Dr. Chironna pointed to examples in Scripture, such as Esau’s fateful decision to give up his birthright due to a wounded soul, as evidence of how unchecked emotional pain can lead to devastating consequences. He explained that God desires wholeness for His people—spirit, soul and body—and that allowing the Holy Spirit to search the heart and bring hidden issues to light is key to experiencing transformation.
The conversation also addressed the need to separate conviction from condemnation and to fully embrace the truth of God’s love.
True healing, they said, begins when believers stop trying to fix themselves and instead surrender their past to Christ. Through guided prayer and spiritual activation, viewers were encouraged to identify areas of pain, release emotional burdens and embrace the peace and identity found in God’s presence.
