Jared's Religious Deconstruction Part II: A Turbulent Transition 1:01:00

1:01:00

Hello Traveler. Today's stop on The Path will pick up where we left off with Jared on his path of religious deconstruction. His foundation of faith was challenged as difficult times came and persisted for his family through crucial years of his own personal development. Eventually, he met a crossroads with his parents. Either continue to deal with their collective and individual traumas divided or come together and find a new light to guide them forward as a unified family. With a major life obstacle overcome, Jared then had the pause to ponder what his worldview actually was which led to another pivotal evolution on his spiritual journey. Stay tuned for more to come in this mini-series! With love,Jared…
