Episode 2 – Who Told You You Were Broken?
Subtitle: Unlearning the Shame-Based Faith We Inherited
Host: James Kiger | Real Without Religion
What if the most damaging belief you ever held… wasn’t about God—but about you?
In this episode of Real Without Religion, we pull back the curtain on shame-based spirituality and ask the big question: Who told you you were broken? James shares stories, scripture, and a bold reframe of your divine identity—one that starts not with sin, but with wholeness.
You’ll hear:
🧠 Why your programming—not your soul—is what needs healing
📖 How religious language distorted your self-worth
🎶 A hilarious but honest look at old hymns (hello, “worm theology”)
🧩 What the Bible really says about your worth
💭 How beliefs like “I’m not enough” silently sabotage your life
🔥 And why letting go of a caricatured God is the beginning of spiritual freedom
This episode also introduces “From the Bookshelf,” featuring metaphysical trailblazer Florence Scovel Shinn, and her life-changing reminder: “Your word is your wand.”
