God Says Honor Your Mother… But What If She’s Toxic?
A toxic mother can use guilt, Scripture, and the command to “honor your mother” to make you question healthy boundaries. Discover what God actually requires, why honor does not mean unconditional obedience, and how to protect your peace without compromising your faith.
Have you ever heard of an oxymoron?
An oxymoron is a self-contradicting word or group of words—like “jumbo shrimp,” “awfully good,” and “only choice.”
If you were just learning the language, some of these figures of speech might confuse you, and rightfully so. How can the word “jumbo” be used to describe something so small?
The same is true for an interaction with a person who calls themselves a Christian but displays polar opposite qualities. It’s like an oxymoron; it just doesn’t make sense.
But who are we to judge whether someone is a Christian or not… after all, we don’t truly know their heart… or do we?
Or are we supposed to judge those who claim to be in the faith?
After all, a Christian is someone who has received Jesus as their Lord and Savior. They are, as the name implies, “Christ followers.”
You can recognize them by their adherence to biblical principles, their selflessness, their compassion for others, their surrender to God’s will, and their willingness to follow Jesus no matter the cost.
So, it’s understandable that when you combine the words “narcissist” and “Christian,” they seem to form an oxymoron.
And this is where you may feel like you’re losing your mind.
Maybe you’re confused by the fact that they call themselves Christians, or perhaps you’ve even seen them respond to an altar call or attend church more than you.
They may even know scripture… but it’s often used to suit their agenda.
The problem is, narcissists usually know enough scripture to be dangerous, but they lack the desire to give up what pleases them.
This contradiction can leave you feeling confused and conflicted about how to handle these “wolves in sheep’s clothing.”
Unfortunately, living life with these confusing contradictions can lead to:
Lack of Discernment
Living with a narcissist can leave you baffled. In an effort to be a loving person, you might ignore the signs of a toxic individual simply because they call themselves a “Christian.”
Questionable decisions
Being influenced by a narcissist often leads to the need for biblical counseling to address narcissism, as you may no longer be able to distinguish truth from lies.
Wounded emotions
If you find yourself triggered by almost everyone, it’s likely you need healing from codependency. Narcissists have a way of keeping you walking on eggshells.
It makes you ask the pressing question… Can a narcissist be a Christian?
So, if you’re ready to gain clarity, a biblical perspective, and find healing from codependency, dive in… God has so much more for you.

Hi, I’m Kris!
I’m Kris Reece—an author and speaker who has spent the better part of two decades immersed in the world of toxic relationships—studying them professionally, enduring them personally, and examining them biblically—all to bring you the best of what I’ve lived and learned.
Today, I help Christians recognize toxic and narcissistic patterns, break free from codependency, set biblical boundaries, and stop getting pulled into cycles that leave them confused, exhausted, and questioning themselves.
Because recognizing a toxic person is only part of the work. You also need to know what to do when the blame gets shifted, the guilt kicks in, the boundary gets challenged, or you find yourself once again trying to explain, fix, manage, or carry someone who refuses to take responsibility for themselves.
I’ve authored four books, including my latest, Breaking the Narcissist’s Grip, created numerous online courses, and published hundreds of videos that have reached millions of people around the world.
Everything I create has one goal: to help you see clearly what’s happening, know what’s yours to do about it, and stop losing yourself trying to change someone else.
That’s what I do.
But I know you’d probably rather know who I am…
