how to lose the church without losing your soul

how to lose the church without losing your soul
  1. realize that your soul is independent of the church… in it but not of it;
  2. know that that the church was only meant to assist your journey, not initiate, endorse or authenticate it;
  3. find others you connect with outside the church, christian or not, for life-giving relationships;
  4. allow yourself time to learn how to breathe without the use of the apparatus (the church);
  5. do not accept the inevitable corrections and condemnations you will receive from well-intentioned but seriously mistaken people;
  6. separate yourself from the haters. You aren’t required to fellowship with them any longer;
  7. you will need to deprogram the inner voice that tells you that you’ve made a big mistake;
  8. nourish your inner life (soul) with what always has but you were afraid to admit it (with new age music, incense, native spirituality, Buddhism, sex outdoors… whatever);
  9. the hardest part if you haven’t already: meditate until your life is transformed by the renewing of your mind. It is possible and necessary!
  10. learn how to laugh from the heart again. Find joy.
You may be surprised to discover that your spiritual health and overall well-being is far better than you ever dreamed possible.
