Trusting After Leaving an Unhealthy Church

How can we reorient ourselves after we've left a church that indoctrinated us?

I recently had a conversation with Jamie (name changed) who made this exact statement. And you know what? I don't blame them! When you're part of a church who shares messages like the one posted yesterday - where's there little wiggle room for questions, unity equals uniformity, and the only "right theology" is their theology, who can you trust when you leave!?

This is what I learned in the Master's program - there are MANY theologies, MANY ways to think about God, and often, they're polarized. (On my TBR is The Other Evangelicals by Isaac B. Sharp)

Does this make it easier? Not in the least. But what it did for me was allow me to realize that God cannot be contained in one belief set.

You’ll also get access to some resources I shared at the end of the post.
Think of it as buying me a monthly coffee.
