A Guide to Living with Religion

Written By Henry Craig Hadley

Does your faith feel like a system of control, or does it inspire wonder? In this continuation of our series in 1 John, we explore what it really means to "test the spirits" (1 John 4:1) in a modern world.

Without critique, religion can quickly become idolatry. We dive into the dangers of a strict "binary" worldview, what the horror movie Heretic gets right about toxic religion, and why healthy faith requires us to embrace paradox and mystery. If you've ever felt like God is infinitely bigger than the "bucket" of organized religion, this message is for you.
