Breaking the Power of the Mask with Jocelyn J. Jones | Created In The Image of God 251

Jocelyn J. Jones grew up in Catholic school, watching her mom convert so the kids wouldn’t be left out—and quietly learning how to perform faith without ever really meeting God. She remembers sitting bored in Mass, inventing sins for confession, and treating church as ritual rather than relationship. That began to shift at a Kairos retreat in high school, but the real turning point came in college, when a friend invited her to a women’s Bible study and a worn VHS tape—Juanita Bynum’s “No More Sheets”—brought soul ties and sexual trauma into the light.In this episode, Jocelyn shares how God met her in that “ugly cry” on the living room floor, walked with her through years of wrestling, and eventually led her from journalism and TV into full‑time ministry at 23. Today she’s an ordained minister, author of Breaking the Power of the Mask, founder of Faith on the Journey Counseling, and a Master Facilitator with the Trauma Healing Institute, helping people heal from trauma, grief, and shame through a Christ‑centered lens.Together we talk about religion versus relationship, judgment versus love, and why taking off the mask is the first step toward emotional freedom and a life of purpose in Christ.
