Summary
In this week's episode, Jamie brings up the topic of being hurt, disappointed, disallusioned, or being downright angry with God, but somehow, unable or "prohibited" from speaking it (as if God doesn't already know your heart). They discuss how many Christians have been taught at a fundamental level that it would be "sinful" to be angry with God, and how heretical it sounds to have to "forgive God," when God is perfect! They get real about their own struggles around this, and when that finally changed for them. Jamie talks about the freedom that came as she got honest with God for the first time, and they also compare intimacy in marriage to intimacy with God in this context. Brian shares how intentionally focusing on the Christ in us, helps him see more and more that God isn't "out there," rather, IN US. Glad you're with us today.
