Progress isn't the highlight reel of life you're seeing across social media. Progress is NOT landing the new job, meeting your spouse, having a baby, or moving somewhere new. Progress can feel extremely isolating, lonely, tense, and even...boring Let's talk about how progress can change your life and result in the byproducts of achievements in our romantic and career life.

Finding your purpose in life can feel daunting...it sure sounds like it just reading that statement.
In today's video I'm going to be sharing with you how to discover your purpose, take the pressure off, and break down how the church has overspiritualized finding "purpose and calling."
After this you'll feel encouraged and ready to discover your God given talents.

Today we are breaking down historically who Jezebel was. We will be talking about how there is no term in the Bible called a Jezebel spirit nor is there any reference to an evil spirit being named after a human being.
I'll share the common rebuttal points on this and how we can respond with scripture.

We all have disappointment! It's normal and it's unfortunately apart of life.
For those of you who've been part of a high-control religion, you've probably been made to feel like you have to respond perfectly when disappointment comes. When we don't respond "perfectly" because we aren't perfect...we beat ourselves up.
In today's video, I share with you how I'm currently processing disappointing news in my life and scriptural references to Jesus' empathy and compassion with our questions and disappointment in him.

People pleasing is a coping mechanism we adopt when we feel in danger. It's a way to protect ourselves from vulnerability.
To it's core, people pleasing is deceptive because it's dishonest. Women and men in toxic religious environments often find themselves adopting this coping mechanism thinking they are doing what God has called them to do which is "love well."
Loving well does not mean loving at the expense of your mental, emotional, and physical health. In today's video, we break all of this down and how to heal from people pleasing!

So much of how you see yourself now is based on beliefs you adopted about yourself in the past.
If you believe you're a failure, you're going to look to confirm that in everything you do in life! What a miserable way for us to live.
It's time to break off the shame...
Break off the doubt...
Or the unbelief in yourself or God...
All of this will only hold you back from all the good things that are awaiting you.
You're not a failure. It's okay. Just keep going.

Hi there!
Welcome back to The Bowen's podcast. Today my husband Branson and I sat down to talk with you about where we are at in our church journey. I'm sure it looks a lot different than yours but maybe you'll identify with a few of the things we talk about today.
There is no right or wrong to this!

I see people slap this verse in my comment section on videos like a "gotcha moment." They almost snicker to themselves as to how they can badger people into attending a church building on a Sunday morning.
I want to make this clear. The church is wonderful! I love God and His people. If you attend a church on a Sunday morning that is great! This isn't meant to discourage that practice it is merely meant to respond to critics who say Sunday service is mandatory.
My community is filled with people healing from spiritual abuse. It's normal and really healthy to take time off from the institution of the church while healing from church abuse. You aren't "sinning" for not going for a bit. It's normal and totally okay.

Itโs so important that we understand the meaning behind commonly misused verses like โDo not touch Godโs anointed.โ
For a long time, I grappled with the confusion and doubt around this verse. Should I share my story? Would I be cursed for speaking out against โGodโs anointedโ people?
Itโs a dilemma many find themselves in today.
Itโs unclear whether leaders exploiting these verses genuinely believe in their twisted interpretation or knowingly employ manipulative tactics. I assume there is probably both.
Regardless, open conversations like these are essential to unveil the verses that silence us or shackle us in fear.

Narcissistic church pastors and leaders are keenly aware of which scriptures to use to get you to follow their vision. In this video,

Your peace is sacred and learning to protect that peace means not allowing other people's thoughts and opinions to rule your emotions.

Time and time again we see these charismatic leaders use their position and authority to abuse those under their power.
It's nothing other than wicked. But, as the body of Christ, why do we continue to give these people a platform?
For this to stop I think we have to look within ourselves to find the answer...

I've been talking with countless people who have been feeling this way. You might feel disillusioned with the church system for many different reasons. If you are in that place, know that you aren't alone.
Not feeling like you belong with a church is an isolating experience. While I know it is SO important to have a community of fellow believers to do life with, I also know that it doesn't have to look like a four-walled building at 9:00 AM on a Sunday morning.
I believe God is doing something in this hour. He is awakening people's hearts and minds to see things in a new way. People are starting to ask questions. They are concerned by what they see. If you wonder what is happening with the tithe, if megachurches are even biblical, and if you're questioning celebrity Christianity, that is normal. You are not the problem.

During and after any abuse it is normal to feel disconnected from yourself and the world around you. While healing and reconnecting with yourself and God is not a one-size-fits-all journey, here are some tools that I have utilized that may help you in your healing journey.
1. Get out of the spiritually abusive environment.
2. Acknowledge how you feel donโt suppress your emotions.
3. Give yourself loving kindness and compassion. Give yourself a break. โTo the degree we have compassion for ourselves, we will also have compassion for others.โ
Look at all you have been through. The good, the bad, and the really ugly. Look at all of it with an open, kind, and loving heart. That will help break the cycle of self-hatred and neglect. Again, there isnโt one simple solution to fix everything overnight, if there was everyone would be doing it.
Healing is in the small moments. Itโs in conquering each small negative thought that tries to come in and take root. Itโs learning to rewire those negative thought patterns. Itโs changing the narrative you have of yourself and God.

In the church, you often can feel like you have "flawed faith" if you're struggling with depression, anxiety, and constant negative thoughts.
That belief only perpetuates the cycle of all three of those things. Then you might hear "Just trust God," or "Just put your faith in God," like you aren't doing that already... It can be hard to connect with God when you're in that place.
I get it, I've been there. The thing is God lays out for us tips in the Bible that we can implement daily to help connect with Him and ourselves in hard times.

No matter where you are at on your journey of healing from spiritual abuse this conversation with @suzette-themarriagewarrior- will encourage you that God has never left your side.
Often we equate the character traits of a narcissistic pastor with the character traits of God, assuming they are the same. Let this be a reminder that the words Jesus uses to describe himself are "gentle" and "lowly in heart."
He is so near to you on your healing journey. Whether leaving a megachurch, church, ministry or experiencing spiritual abuse at the hands of a relationship, these tools and tips will help you reconnect with God.
