Episode 7: Spiritual Bypass: How we put God in a box to avoid facing our pain, uncertainty, and human frailty

from The Authentic Way Podcast · host Levi and Loren Smith

Listen in as we discuss the ways that we, as Christians, can unconsciously use faith and spirituality to bypass our challenging emotions, moments of uncertainty, and feelings of powerlessness. In this episode, Levi and Loren share from their own journeys and their observations of others within Christian charismatic church movements how this tricky defensive approach to avoiding the difficult things in life can show up, how it can keep us from meeting God within the challenges of our human experience, and how to begin to recognize if we're limiting how we engage with God in order to avoid our pain.
