Hello, this is my first post here and it’s a long one so buckle up everyone. A little bit of context I grew up in a Christian family, albeit a broken one (parents split up at a young age). My mom and dad both were strong followers of Jesus, my mom has since lost her faith. My dad was a drug addict from his teenage years to his mid 20s and through an incredible story of redemption that I won’t get into right now he found Jesus and his life was completely changed, and anyone who knew him from back then can attest to the radical change in him. He spent many years with my mom before I was born and during my early childhood traveling all around the world spreading the good news, changing countless lives, witnessing miracles and truly living in the fullness of the gospel. He’s not by any means religious either, he just has a deep love for Jesus because of what he’s done in his life. All this to say, growing up, I have always had an understanding of who Jesus was and what he did for us when he died on the cross. Growing up around churches and religious people and being influenced by that culture has played a part in shaping my world view. As a kid I was taught that God was a separate being who loves us more than we could ever understand (our Heavenly Father) and that we as humans are inherently sinners and the only way to be free from that sin is to accept Jesus into our heart. So now, I am 20 years old and I’ve been opening myself up more spiritually and watching Rey’s videos and I’ve been learning all these new things. Like God is not some big being in the sky, but rather he is the entire universe and he is me and he is you and he is everyone. I always believed that heaven was a place and that when I died, I would ascend and “dwell in the house of the lord forever.” But now I’m hearing that I can just be in heaven right now? And if I am God then is Jesus still my Lord and savior? I’ve watched many of Rey’s videos and when I really look at his core messages, I have found that they are all true, and that they actually do lineup with the teachings of the Bible just on a much deeper level than I had ever considered before. I’ve tried sharing some of these things with my dad and he doesn’t seem to understand or be willing to understand and he’s actually advised me against watching these kinds of videos because he said they are dangerous and they’ll lead me away from the truth. I’ve refrained from sharing a lot of what I’ve learned from Rey with my dad because he is very unreceptive to it and I’m worried that he’s going to think I’m falling down the wrong path and becoming some crazy spiritual person. I’m curious what you all think about all this, and if you can help me make sense of everything, because it feels like I don’t know what to believe anymore. All I know is I really hope that everything I learned growing up about Jesus is true.

Lately I’ve been forced into a pause I didn’t choose. After years of giving everything I had to my job, often at the expense of my own body, I’m recovering from a concussion and facing the reality that healing can’t be measured by productivity. What’s coming up for me is how tightly I’ve tied my identity to what I produce, how reliable I am, how much I can endure. Rest feels uncomfortable. Not because I don’t need it, but because somewhere along the way I learned that my value comes from output. I’m trying to learn how to be a person, not a performance. For those who have gone through injury, burnout, or a major life shift: How did you begin separating who you are from what you do? What helped you untangle worth from productivity, especially in a culture that rewards pushing through at all costs? I’m genuinely curious and open to learning.

hey guys i’m new here but i’m so excited to see where this takes me. my name is ralph and im from the netherlands!! my mind is always wandering, so right now im really focusing on fully surrendering en trusting the grand play. with some things i still can’t help but to have questions, mostly about my love life and carreer as an artist. hopefully i’ll be able to find some answers here.

I have POTS - a condition where I pass out or get dizzy when I stand up too fast or eat. I take a medicine that cures this called Fludrocortisone. It’s helped me tremendously with being a functional human being. I used to be practically bed bound. But I noticed that since I was on this med I no longer am AWARE of my guides visiting me. I used to feel them every night and I spoke in weird languages my husband recorded and had super vivid dreams. But that hasn’t happened the last few years I’ve been on the med. I saw a tik tok the other day that said it has an ingredient in the med that calcifies the pineal gland. I can’t remember the ingredient- but maybe lythium or lead or something that surprised me. My life path has continued to be great and I’m having a lot of new ideas and experiences so I think my guides are still with me and working their magic but I’m just not conscious and actively participating. I feel like the trade off is ok and I should continue the med. What do you think? Has anyone ever heard of this or experienced it?

Greetings, family! I was curious to know if anyone else here has broken free from religious programming? I was raised United Pentecost and I have worked for 25 years to de-program myself from the Christian dogma and fearful mindset that was fed to me daily in my young years. I can now say that I view Jesus and the Bible in a light and understanding that the church fears. So, anyone else? 😊
