In today’s episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, the show dives deep into three powerful themes shaping faith and family life. In her Faith Walk, Erica addresses how to recognize unhealthy spiritual leadership, reminding listeners to trust the Word over manipulative or secretive directives. This aligns with broader Christian discussions warning believers to watch for red flags in church leadership—such as leaders who isolate members, micromanage, or use “God told me…” to manipulate behavior. Research shows that these behaviors reflect patterns seen in controlling or abusive pastors, emphasizing the importance of personal discernment and biblical grounding for protection and spiritual health.  

Erica also shares heartfelt reflections on quality mother–son time, opening up about how intentional questions help teens express themselves. Parenting experts highlight that teens communicate best when they feel heard, validated, and supported—especially in today’s high‑stress digital age—reinforcing Erica’s strategy of asking deeper questions beyond “How was your day?” to build trust and emotional connection. On Money Mondays, finance expert Jini Thornton helps couples navigate love and money, encouraging transparency, shared vision, and honest conversations—an approach consistent with data showing money is the #1 source of relationship conflict, often caused by mismatched values or hidden financial habits. Experts agree that financial intimacy, boundary‑setting, and honest communication not only reduce friction but strengthen commitment and long‑term stability.
