Summary: I've been enjoying my sporadic series on God - I hope you have, too. In case you missed the first two episodes, here are the links to Part 1 and Part 2. In this episode, I talked about the inevitable association that nearly all of us will have with a religious tribe - that group of people with whom we share spiritual affinity, similar beliefs, and shared values. I also talked about what happens when you feel like you no longer fit within that tribe, how to process that in a healthy way, and how to move into something different. I talked about how to lose your tribe without losing your faith. I talked about closed systems, broken systems, and open systems. I talked about what Jesus was really talking about when he said he didn't come to bring peace, but a sword, and that you're supposed to hate your father and mother. And I talked about how to graciously keep growing, even when it's confusing to you and everybody else. Enjoy the podcast. P.S. I also mentioned my new book that's coming out on August 22nd! Take a look! Music on today's episode by my good friend Matt Moberg.
