On the Path with Kissiah Young
Welcome to On The Path!
In this space we explore some of the most tender and painful aspects of life, which happens to also be some of the most meaningful. We explore death and dying, grief and loss, and how we hold all of this. This is a space of vulnerability and healing, of repair and reconciliation. We grow here.
On the Path with Kissiah Young
From Dogma to Divinity: A Journey Back to Self
Religion has a way of evoking a wide range of thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Some find it a place of holding while others a source of trauma and pain. I have experienced both, but mostly the latter, particularly because of my sexual orientation. Having grown up Baptist, you could imagine the conflict involved in being gay. Talk about a doozy! I had to walk away from Christianity in order to become myself, and now I rest in a kind of spirituality that holds me. Let's talk about how religion informs us, and what we feel about the layers therein.
Thank you for being here with me.
