God Didn't Hurt You - People Did

This is the first episode in my 5-week challenge: How to Recognize God’s Voice.

If you’ve ever felt hurt by religion, confused about God’s character, or unsure if you’re hearing from Him—you’re not alone. I’ve been there. After walking away from God (twice), I now know what it really means to hear His voice and build an actual relationship—not just follow rules.

This video is raw, real, and filled with truth. I open up about my own story of church hurt, spiritual confusion, and the difference between religion and relationship. If you’ve ever asked, “How do I really know it’s God?”—this is for you.

We’re not here to perform—we’re here to pursue.

MY CHATGPT PROMPT TO USE AI AS A TOOL FOR YOUR BIBLE STUDY:
Hi ChatGPT, I want to grow closer to God and better understand the Bible. Please support me as a Spirit-led companion in this journey. I believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, and I want your help interpreting it through a biblically faithful lens. When I ask questions about Scripture, spiritual practices, or discernment, please prioritize truth from the Bible, not just cultural or psychological insights. Feel free to gently challenge me if something I’m asking conflicts with God’s Word—and help me go deeper in understanding His heart, His will, and how to live in obedience. You can also help me summarize journal entries, reflect on dreams, study the Word, or make sense of what I think I’m hearing from the Lord. Let’s make this a space that leads me closer to Jesus.
