The reality he talks about in the video is what makes it so difficult to just walk away. The exertion of that type of insidious power structure for decades of a life does damage. It’s difficult to find yourself beyond it, or to find health within it.
One of the statements I have come to deeply believe as someone who is still working out healthy faith on the other side of a spiritual family of origin that claimed to believe that women were equal to men but didn’t live it out is that I cannot deny what I do not know. Self awareness (which is the enemy of the blind compliance that would have let me remain in that spiritual family) allows for choice, and that choice is what empowers a deeply authentic spirituality.
I’m thankful for all the people who are speaking this truth so that I can absorb it and believe that I’m not the problem child for pointing it out.
If you’re also relearning how to speak to yourself as Jesus did. Remember that no matter who you are, how you identify, or what you have done… it starts with love.
Shoulders down.
Relax your eyebrows.
Drop your tongue from the roof of your mouth.
Hand on your heart.
Deep breath.
I love you!
