    Religion being taught to children at such a young age and how it can pressure them
    Finding the right words to say to children
    Growing up with religion but feeling otherwise as you mature

    The bible and whether or not it is accurate

    I discovered that loving God is a choice, and by choosing to be a servant of Christ, I am called to love and cast no stones on those who have beliefs outside of His will and His word. That’s for God to handle. In all thy getting, get understanding. As Christians, our lives should be the catalyst for others to want to draw nearer to Christ. The priority of believers is to love, not judge.

    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! I am so grateful for this conversation. I'm so glad for this conversation. I've been having many questions and some debates about what I've been taught in being a Christian for the last 60 years. I am more free and now living in so much liberty at this time in my life.

    I am so glad that I listened to this podcast. As a woman that is in the process of relearning everything that I was taught about God, this was such a refreshing conversation. What stood out to me is that we miss that greatest commandments, Love God first and love your neighbor as yourself. Being a dogmatic Christian, I totally forgot me. I treated me with such disrespect that I didn't or don't recognize myself. So I am working on loving me. I am so glad that there are men like Shaun and Kristian that are an living authentic life and giving it to us straight. So many will become free from the confines of religion.

    Reconcile yourself to Christ Jesus and not people and what we say and do. Spend time in silent prayer on your own, this is so different to organized religion.

    My understanding and definition of "sin" is when you are not "Conciously Aware of Who You Are" and you don't know how powerful you are. That is when you "Missed The Mark." That is what I believe is a sin. However, it is not a punishable sin, because you can always ask God to help you to remember who you are and learn more about Concious Awareness. I asked God and it worked for me. I do not believe in "No Religions. 🏃 Run away from that. We were taught wrong.

    @31:00 This is an issue of the heart (which the Bible says is deceitful and desperately sick), we should always be checking what the heart is desiring up against Gods word. So yes, we have a choice.

    I guess for me, I understand that there is good and evil in this world. Satan will distort your physical senses where you go by what you see. I have chosen to increase my relationship with God. I have been reading and Studying the word and understanding of the authority that Jesus Christ has given me over Satan and his minions. I pray in the supernatural and in tongues daily. God is a spirit and not man. I am glad I have studied out the truth of God’s word and have experienced his presence in my life. I had to unlearn everything I grew up such as yourself and learn correctly who I am in God. My sin is not any better than yours and I get convicted by the Holy Spirit. I am glad I learned the truth and my eyes have been opened and I have peace, joy and love in my heart.

    The Bible is the living active word of God. Your journey is your journey, but to minimize the word of God to justify a persons sexuality or complicated relationship with “a” or the organized church is not healing… or liberating in my opinion.
