The Unshakeable Self

Reclaiming God: Finding Truth Beyond the Church

Listen Later

What happens when the version of God you were taught no longer aligns with your truth? In this episode of The Unshakable Self, I sit down with Kevin Miguel Garcia, a spiritual director, a mystical theologian + practitioner, an LGBTQ+ author / speaker, and a wild lover of life, to explore the journey of reclaiming faith beyond the confines of organized religion. We dive into the tension between attachment and authenticity, why questioning religious doctrine is an act of self-liberation, and how we can redefine God as love, presence, and personal experience rather than fear or control. If you’ve ever struggled with deconstructing faith while holding onto spirituality, this conversation will open new doors for you.

This Episode Is Perfect For You If...

  • You’ve ever struggled with the word God and want to reclaim it on your own terms.
  • You’re navigating faith deconstruction and seeking something deeper than dogma.
  • You want to build a spiritual practice that actually feels good—without fear, guilt, or shame.
  • You’ve questioned what you were taught about spirituality but aren’t sure where to turn next.
  • You’re curious about the intersection of mysticism, queerness, and self-trust.

    • "If God really is love, I know what love is. Love is obvious—and so is hate. If something is loving, it’s a voice for God."
