If you’ve ever felt like church, prayer and your spiritual growth has become routine and has lost its richness, this episode will resonate. Have you questioned what makes Christianity different from other religions or what the difference between religion and a relationship with Jesus is?
Today, Terri and Andrea are sharing their personal experiences with religion and the shame that came with that AND how God moved through those experiences and shared His grace instead.
God invites us into a personal relationship with Him, not simply to sign up for religious regulations, rules and checklists that we can never measure up to. But God wastes nothing, so no matter where you are or where you’ve been, He can use it for His glory. He is inviting you deeper into a personal relationship with Him and if you’ve got a minute, hit play to be strengthened and transformed.
