On this deconstruction journey, we have unclobbered the Scripture that is falsely taught to condemn LGBTQ+ and same-sex relationships.

We have exposed false teachings that are used for religious manipulation.

And we recently addressed the big one: the myth and false teaching of hell!

It’s a lot, and it rattles the core of our theology – but in the most wonderful way. We opened the box we had God in and all heaven broke loose!

Beloved, have you ever wondered… Are we sure?? Can we be certain about our beliefs?

Has the world gone crazy? Has this country gone crazy? Feels like it for sure.

Do you feel like maybe you’re crazy busy, stressed and overwhelmed? Yeah, me too.

We talked about everything that is happening – the news and developments we are being bombarded with.  Coming at us so fast it’s hard to process it all. Which we pointed out is by design.

And all the gaslighting when we confront things out and fight back. Maddening.  

Let’s talk about how to handle so much happening so fast -- how to process it and how to best deal with it as much as possible, so we can be more effective in our resistance and our response, while not losing our hope and joy.

Beloved, hear me: You are not imagining things!

When you see executive orders, policies, rollbacks, hate-filled rhetoric, & you feel that gut-punch of fear — it’s real. When your heart aches because you see rights stripped away, protections dismantled, & lives put at risk — it’s not in your head.

And yet, when we speak up, we are dismissed, laughed at, and told that we are overreacting. It’s a deliberate attempt to make you doubt what you know to be true, to keep you silent, to stop you from resisting.

It’s gaslighting. Pure and simple. We are recognizing it and naming it – and we will not be discouraged or impacted by it!

We wake up to news, breaking stories happen throughout the day, the barrage of executive orders and developments seem never-ending.

It can easily be overwhelming. Anybody feel that way?

Beloved, that actually may be their goal.

Today, we talk about what is happening in our country right now, how it’s making us feel, and what we can do about all of this to not lose hope, to care for ourselves and to care for those we love.

We recently came through the holidays. Has anyone ever been uninvited to a family gathering? We have.

Well, Spring is coming, maybe you have a wedding on the calendar?

So, today, we flip the script and talk about YOUR special events… a birthday celebration, wedding, family reunion, graduation.

And we ask the questions: Are there people we HAVE to invite?  How do we handle that and how do we balance it all with selfcare?

How much do you have to listen to someone who wants to tell you how to live and what you’re doing wrong, and if you’d just follow their advice you’d be good? Not much!

Have you heard the phrase “iron sharpens iron” as a justification for someone telling you everything that is wrong with you?

Or have you ever been part of a religious “accountability” group? Same thing -- someone who feels that they have the duty to tell you what you should be doing.

Social media bickering, trolling, bullying — the freedom strangers feel to reply in all caps to someone they don’t know — on an issue they don’t know — is all part of this narrative.

You deserve the truth. Your heart deserves to be freed from the myth and dangers of "Christian accountability."

Beloved, last week we talked about the myth and false teaching of hell and how we have been so terrorized by it.

That and other false teachings cause us to think and believe the most awful things about ourselves. Things that are just not true!

Today, we tell you some true things… about you.

Jesus said for us to love our neighbor AS WE LOVE OURSELVES. The most important freedom is freedom from your own self-judgment – so we can love and accept ourselves unconditionally and fully and lavishly – so we can love our neighbor the same way.

According to religion, there are certain beliefs, certain parts of theology, that are not even debatable. Why?? 

Maybe because they pose the greatest threat to the power system of the church.

That’s why when you even question it – you are immediately called a heretic. Or worse. 

We have addressed many of these and will continue to do that moving forward. 

Today, we want to get into hell… wait, let me rephrase that… we want to talk about the myth of hell. Yes beloved, it’s a myth!

The idea of a hell is absolutely vital to the teaching of contempt, the fear used by religion to manipulate us, and people are terrorized!! 

We deconstruct this false teaching to free our hearts to love and be loved.

We have talked about reclaiming our power, our hope, and not surrendering to doomscrolling or fearscrolling narratives.

Today, we go deeper and press the conversation around fear - to bring us freedom.

We don’t want to live our lives afraid. There’s no life in that.

Fear is not the place to make our best choices. We know that. Fear IS helpful when we really are under threat. But we can’t live from there. The constant stress, the cortisol your body shoots through us to deal with fear, will wreck us.

In a time of so much fear, what do we do?  Could fear actually be a gift??

No one knows you better than you.

No one knows who you are and the journey you have been on better than you. 

So, why do so many people not believe you when you tell them?  Why do they think they know you better than you know yourself, telling you that you are confused, or just plain wrong?

Let’s talk about how to move forward when you are disbelieved, gaslighted, and treated with contempt.

Beloved, you deserve to be believed about who you are!

Period. End of story.
