I relate SO MUCH to his story!

After

We'll unpack the science behind anger, its role in trauma recovery, and how to transform it into creative, energy.
🔥 You're not bitter — you're awake. And that fire in your gut? It’s not weakness. It’s your power coming back online.

3. Pour l'entourage des croyant•es : à quel moment une croyance devient-elle dangereuse ? Existe-t-il un parcours type de déconversion ? Comment faire sortir un•e ami•e d'une situation d’emprise ?, etc.

J'aimerais donc beaucoup savoir quels sont les passages qui vous sembleraient importants/utiles en format court (indiquer le sujet et l'émission d'origine).👇

The Canadian pop singer Shawn Mendes wrote again and again in his journal "I will sell out the Rogers Center". He was doing something called manifesting, which has taken off on Tiktok. But what exactly is it? I investigate:

A photograph of an open notebook. On one page it says "Here we go" and on another page the words "I will sell out the Roger Center" are written on every line of the page.

The #DoubleStandard of #Christian #Testimonies

#In this episode I discuss how our once Christian testimonies become weaponized against us when we leave the #church, and how to gain a fresh perspective on life after leaving, even when everyone in the church wants to disregard your story.

This was me 25 years ago - 1998 Hillsong College graduation. That's Brian Houston behind me, and there's about 1000 people in the auditorium. A few months later I was in full-time in an Assemblies of God ministry. We've come a long way kid. #deconstruction #deconversion #transition

Amazing. The #sineadoconner documentary.

She really got that right early - the fact that the religion affected her mother and made many parents abusive. Now, in the US, more people are deconstructing than 20 years ago, but it's all about the effect on ourselves. But the fact is, christianity stunts personal growth and creates immature parents who physically or emotionally abuse their kids.

Leaving Worship: From #Worship Leader to #Atheist Activist

Yet another #deconversion story? Leaving Worship tells of a dedicated #Christian leaving the fold, joining #activism, and becoming an outspoken atheist. Part reflection, part #philosophy, part #apologetics.

Tfw your mom posts this and you realize you're the crackhead? I guess? Lol. It's a low key #passiveaggressive #shunning . Or maybe actually aggressive aggressive?

Well at least maybe she's letting go and not blaming herself. That's a way to look at it.

#religioustrauma #deconversion #exchurch #exchristian

FB boomer share that reads: people can have the same parents, live in the same house and raised by the same morals...but one can still be a crackhead and the other one a preacher, so you can't say it was how somebody was raised. It's the decisions you choose to make!

(Yikes on bikes.)

Did I ever mention that in a galaxy far away I was a full-time #Christian worker? Most of my employment was in #evangelical and #pentecostal welfare and parachurch ministries. But I also held a couple of pastoral positions. This was last position before #deconversion , I held a dual role running the church office during the week and was the creative director overseeing the Sunday services. I also made us one of the first churches in our denomination to get into #socialmedia.

Now I'm a queer, trans,
#agnosticatheist who couldn't give a shit about that stuff. 🤷‍♀️💅🏳️‍⚧️
