Spiritually Homesteading | How to Lose Your Religion & Keep Your Jesus

In this SECOND season premiere we move beyond deconstruction and focus on rebuilding a genuine, sustainable spiritual life, brick by brick, practice by practice. Expect real stories, practical tools, honest conversations, and monthly encouragement to help you cultivate inner peace and a faith that fits. This is the blueprint for the new season and a new YOU. 

You don’t need to have all the answers—just be willing to show up for you. Welcome home; let’s build together.

After years of deconstructing my faith, I stopped asking what I should add and started asking what I could let go of. What I was left with was simple: Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the Bible as a tool — not a rulebook, not an idol, but a tool. In this episode I share why these three things became my non-negotiables and how stripping everything else away actually made my faith stronger.

Your Story With God Deserves to Be Written Down... so let's record it and make it count.

We often forget that God exists outside the Bible and inside your life. LET's talk about that. 

After a decade of a deconstruction, I finally rebuilt my faith and this is what I did to do it. The best part is... my faith is more secure than it was before. I want to do the same for you. 

There maybe a season in your journey where you aren't sure if you can trust the Bible anymore...or if you should ever read it again. I have been in this place and it is both frustrating and scary. Frustrating because everyone keeps pushing the Bible on you. Scary, because what do you do to "connect with God?" without a Bible. Let's talk about that.

I've been there. You look at the ashes of your former spiritual practices and wonder when it is time to move on? You wonder if it is even worth the journey? Beauty waits on the other side. Let's talk about that.

Biblical is a word that a lot of believers like to use to persuade and confirm their message or beliefs. But what if they are missing a significant piece of that formula?

A lot of times Biblical and spiritual abuse is masked as "biblical authority," let's unpack the implications on why ignoring the Bible (even if you hate reading the Bible) is not in your best interest.

There are a lot of different types of people who have a lot of different opinions about the Bible. And based on where you are in your journey, whether you are deconstructing or reconstructing or just looking to grow your faith, it can get complicated really quickly. Especially since every source may or may not be wanting to help you the way you were hoping they would. 

Like applying a theory framework that helps with literature, here are a few ways you can look at the Bible and Bible guides.

Let's address the elephant in the room: Christians have a reputation for hypocrisy. The accusation isn't new, and honestly, it's often deserved. But before we pile on religious folks exclusively, we need to recognize something crucial: hypocrisy isn't strictly a Christian thing. It's a human thing.

So why does Christian hypocrisy feel so pervasive? Here are four reasons that go deeper than "they're just bad people."
