Ever wondered what happens when preconceived notions of faith community clash with reality? Ruth recounts her eye-opening experience at divinity school, confronting her own self-righteousness and learning to see others through a more compassionate, God-like lens. Through their stories, Ruth and Jaquetta highlight the importance of personal growth, differentiation, and the ongoing process of self-discovery. We share heartfelt anecdotes about overcoming legalism, the evolution of friendships through honest confrontations, and the necessity of self-awareness and vulnerability in cultivating deeper relationships.
Discover the power of genuine prayer and honesty with God as we discuss the transformative potential of being brutally open about our struggles and fears. Ruth and Jaquetta encourage listeners to rest in God's love, trust the process of self-discovery, and embrace the journey towards greater freedom and peace. As we look forward to our upcoming series on "Unlearning Entrepreneurship," this episode serves as a profound reminder that faith, like any journey, requires continual unlearning and growth. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that promises to inspire and challenge your faith walk.
