#9 Struggles with Faith (S1E9)

Religious Rebels Podcast

Christy Lynne Wood

Apr 07, 2024

Transcript

Today Christy digs into common struggles with faith that we often experience: I am not enough, I am not doing enough, I don't believe enough or I don't believe the right things, and I can't hear from God.

She gently reminds her listeners that not everything we've heard in evangelical church or youth group over the years is true. As broken people, we are naturally religious--always looking for a list of things to do. But Jesus isn't looking for good, religious people. He is there to seek, find, save, and love the lost. And this is good news!

Religious Rebels

Christy Lynne Wood spent a decade in Bill Gothard's Institute in Basic Life Principles (as seen on Amazon Prime's "Shiny Happy People" documentary series). Homeschooled in this Christian cult, Christy was a good girl following the rules until Jesus unexpectedly showed up and changed everything.

As Christy got to know Jesus for herself, she began to recognize that the God she knew and the god her cult talked about couldn't be the same God. Once the good girl following the rules, Christy felt a strange rebellion creeping into her heart. But it wasn't rock music, college, or blue jeans that was turning her into a rebel (like she'd been warned), it was Jesus.

Twenty years later, Christy is still passionate about discovering truth, destroying lies, exposing religious Christianity, and helping others find a thriving relationship with the Real Jesus.
