In this episode, we get really honest about why we both stiff-armed Jesus in the early stages of recovery. We talk about the anger we felt, the deep disappointment, and the fear of what would happen if we brought our raw, messy emotions to God.
We also unpack:
- The temptation to believe God is distant or cruel in our suffering
- How childhood wounds shaped our relationship with God
- The turning point that came through spiritual honesty, not pretending
- And what happened when we finally let Jesus into the pain instead of pushing Him away
This conversation is real and raw. But it’s also filled with the hope and peace we found when we stopped running and let Jesus into the darkest places of our hearts. If you're wrestling with disappointment, doubt, or anger toward God, this episode is for you.
Thanks for Listening! We hope this episode brings honesty, perspective, and hope right where you are!
