Religion puts you in bondage and tells you to love your kidnapper ( God )

Season 7

“You need to forgive God.”


In this episode, my guests opened up about faith, pain, and the complicated relationship many people have with religion.


They shared what it’s like to grow up loving a God you’re told to fear—a God who feels so far away when life hits hard. 


From the sting of loss, to the scars of abuse, to the heavy weight of grief, they opened up about wrestling with a God who didn’t seem to show up when they needed Him most. 


It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s a conversation that’ll make you think deeply and see God in a way that's beyond what you have been taught.
