#3 Looking for the Real God (S1E3)


Listen Later

Christy encourages her listeners to rethink the way they see God. Often when we have experienced spiritual abuse in a church or an organization, the god they represent is angry, has specific expectations for us, condemns and rejects, and likes us better when we behave. Christy wonders if this god is more of a representation of the leaders than the Real One.

She reminds her listeners that if God is real (and she believes He is) we don't get to decide who He is, we just get to discover Him. Often we make god into our image instead of recognizing that He is nothing like us. We were just made to be a little like Him.
