Breaking out of Religious Rules
Have you ever felt like the weight of religious rules and expectations was holding you back from a deeper, more authentic connection with your spirituality? In this powerful and insightful episode, we bring you a recording of a recent live talk given by Joanna at a local church, where she dives into the often-complex relationship between religious doctrine and genuine spiritual freedom. Joanna thoughtfully explores how rigid interpretations and an overemphasis on external rules can sometimes obscure the very essence of faith and hinder our personal journey towards spiritual liberation. She delves into the potential pitfalls of legalism, examining how it can lead to feelings of guilt, inadequacy, and a disconnect from the true heart of spiritual experience.
