Is She A Heretic, Or Are You Just Spiritually Immature?

Welcome to today’s post where I will surely offend someone lol

I’ve been thinking lately, watching how many Christian (and spiritual people) operate online – and wanted to share what I see..

There are different stages of spiritual thinking and my posts are working to open you up to a higher perspective than the one you already have and maintain. 

That may be why they sometimes rub you the wrong way.. or create an uncomfortable feeling like “is she a heretic” but like you also can’t look away lol, or an unsettled feeling that leads to the impulse to correct vs inviting curiosity. 

Sometimes we think this is spiritual discernment, but it’s just that we have not matured in our perspective..

Let me explain.

It’s not that I technically disagree with you – you are just at level 1 or 2, and not yet seeing more nuance that’s available. 

Stage 1

Stage 1 thinking is often just regurgitated from church and popular teachers. It proves you’re a good Listener and a good parrot. It’s the “right” answer, and you’re often focused on being right. And correcting people back to this supposed “rightness”.

It’s about finding emotional safety in correctness instead of Christ himself alone.

Many Christians are still here swimming in the kiddie pool, with their fluro orange floaties on, while on social media in the comments section. This is why it’s not pretty.

So many Christians never leave this level. They are satisfied being fed by church regurgitated info like a baby bird because it means they never need to go and find or digest food on their own. They never mature. This is often – not always – the spirit of religion. 

When we are first introduced to Jesus we do alot of learning from regurgitation. But we were never designed to stay there, because regurgitation is not discipleship. It’s knowledge.

(I’m not saying church is wrong/bad)

Stage 2

Stage 2 thinking is a little more nuanced.

 It sees that many Christian environments have missed important nuance about things like our identity in Christ (and not in people or identities like the Good Christian Girl), what being made in the image of God really means, how powerful we are etc. But it is still embedded somewhat in being right and correct, and parroting answers like a good girl. 

Still trying to find emotional safety in correctness,  still unable to sit in nuance, unknowns, differences.

It is learning that discipleship is not just about knowledge and awareness – how many Bible verses I can quote, how many arguments I can “win” because of how smart I am in biblical knowledge.

Stage 3 + Beyond

Stage 3 + beyond can hold more nuance. 

It is an ego that is not influenced by the spirit of religion anymore. 

When needing to be a good parrot, right, correct fades away.. we not only save a lot time and energy – but we just stay connected to the vine, learning and operating from humility and simplicity.

It’s sitting at the feet of Jesus in humility – not in ego. 

We are then left with an identity that can really begin to wrestle with God and others – with less ego – in bigger levels of unknowns, uncertainty and nuance in topics we previously fully believed were black and white. 

We begin to listen more to Holy Spirit – 

Asking him for more details, truths, deeper understanding – not just to KNOW but to be truly TRANSFORMED by the **actual ** renewing of our minds 

We can see and hold nuance with less reactivity to those who are different..

Maybe even thinking there might be an ounce of gold I can glean here, something God might be trying to show me here.. 

We approach with curiosity and “mulling it over” deeply – to see what is initially unseen – before jumping to correct. 

Here we no longer abandon ourselves – because we know that we don’t have to perform correctness to be deeply seen, known, loved and held by God (or others) 

No longer performing the identity of the one who has all the answers, the Good Christian Girl, the smart one, the one who is always right, the one who is the best student, the one who impresses her pastor leaders or others at church, the one who withholds her real opinions thoughts feelings.. even doubts and silences her voice.

Here we walk in more freedom and energy because our ego needs to follow every impulse it feels (often to correct others to our level 1 view). 

Here we are actually PLIABLE. Not in a gullible way, but in a God-way. We are finally in a place where we can receive from him. 

We understand everyone is on their own journey, that I am not the saviour of the world, and that walking with God means tapping into a VASTNESS of wisdom so expansive that it reaches far beyond what I’ve always parroted, and that I always have a lot to learn. 

This is not about being BETTER but they are the staes of spiritual AND emotional maturity that comes from true deep identity work that releases you from an ego still heavily influenced by the spirit of religion – even if you never even knew that it was operating.

You’re over there trying to be right. 

I’m over here trying to raise your level of thinking. I do not post to be right, I post to open you to new perspectives for growth.

We are not the same.

This is why I won’t agree or often engage with your attempted corrective comments. Not because I need to be right – though this is my platform and I am responsible for its stewardship – but I do not bow the knee to spirits other than the Holy Spirit, or to those operating from a perspective that does not see nuance where I see an immense multicoloured rainbow.

May this expand you, excite you, and drive you to  a depth of not just more knowledge and “awareness”, but a depth in your relationship with God you never knew possible.

How To Own Your Personal Sovereignty (Despite Controlling Religious Men)

Recently I was reminded how I reclaimed my voice and sovereignty from unhealthy and controlling religious men.

A male family member who had abandoned me after I wouldn’t obey/submit to him reached out to me. No apology just expectation of access. It was graciously denied.

I won’t go into the whole story, but wanted to share this:

I come from a religious Christian family where most of the men seem to believe they have authority over me simply because I’m a woman. 

Where my and the other females in my family had a role. That role was to always “respect” and “obey” and “submit” to them..

Regardless of whether they deserved it

Regardless of how I felt about it

Regardless of their treatment of me.

But because God supposedly said so.

Where not doing so came with consequences: 

Male adult tantrums

The silent treatment (for weeks on end while they were still being served of course)

Abandonment

Religious abuse

Estrangement – some decided by me, some not.

I distinctly felt this kick into a higher gear after my divorce over a decade ago..

After I stood up to and left ex (who was also obsessed with my “submission” to him)

After I drew a line in the sand

After I began finding myself, voice and sovereignty.

Where the unspoken rule is that I supposedly left my ex-husband’s authority and returned to theirs (for a sinful woman like Eve who was easily deceived surely needs the “covering” of man to navigate the world lol).

.. which clashed more with newly-divorced adult Leah who was finding her sovereignty more than Little Good Christian Girl Leah ever did.

Yet despite all this.. 

Through my spiritual awakening with and in Jesus – freedom upon freedom came:

I found my peace, my voice, my sanity, my Spiritual Wealth™. 

A cup so full, breadcrumbs no longer felt like a banquet 

Control no longer felt normal 

And low effort no longer an event I felt obligated to attend.

What came was a deep sense of my significance – that despite everything I was conditioned to believe about myself as a person and particularly a woman, that I was and am so deeply valued by and delighted in by God himself ..

Meaning I was so satisfied and fulfilled that, as I allowed God access to the different parts of my heart, I stopped chasing what was misaligned, what wasn’t good for me, who wasn’t good for me. 

A gained the space, freedom, courage to be my authentic self, without constantly performing a persona to be approved of 

I gained CLARITY and direction around what was and was not for me 

A voice so strong I no longer go unheard – nor do I stay in spaces who refuse me a voice at the table..

And so much more. 

Im FREE to no longer perform for family

Sweeping things under the rug and pretending it’s all fine

Swallowing family dysfunction

Enabling others in their dysfunction 

I know I’m likely to be seen as rebellious, difficult, unforgiving and selfish for these.

And I honestly just don’t care anymore – not in a faux powerful way, but in a neutral “meh” kind of way

Because one the biggest gifts this has all given me is freedom from what they, my family and others, think of me. 

AND BY A GENUINE MIRACLE – instead of becoming a bitter woman, I somehow found joy, authenticity, communion and balance instead. 

Not hating men and tarring them all with the “all men are bad” brush, but holding certain men accountable.

Not blaming God for the actions of men, but holding certain men accountable. 

I’m so proud of the sovereign woman I am today. 

Not shrinking back

Silencing myself

Making myself small 

Not bowing to the darkness in my bloodline 

Owning my voice

Protecting my peace from the endless toxic loops of people who never change.

And for those of you who need to hear it:

There does come a time when estrangement is holy. 

Where distance is actually protection, God’s protection.

Where distraction is from darkness.

Where the past is a thief of identity

Where the darkness flowing from those called “family” should be silenced (as Jesus did).

God will use their abandonment and neglect of you for YOUR good, I promise – 

It’s time to step into your full sovereignty and be who you were born to be – without their approval.

What Your Life With God Can Be Like – Without All The Rules

When I was a legalistic Christian I could not even begin to imagine life without all the “rules”.

I thought those who didn’t adhere strictly to the rules were rebellious, bad, wrong.

I was constantly anxious about what God thought about me

About how he’d react, and how he’d punish me if I made a mistake 

I walked on eggshells to protect his (seemingly) fragile male ego

Always micro analysing all of my actions 

Obsessed about whether something was “right” vs “wrong”

Always wanting to be “good” not “bad” 

And constantly scared that I was disappointing God, letting him down, and not performing “good enough” to make him pleased with me.

I didn’t realise that I was a walking fear bomb (which is like a glitter bomb but not nearly as sparkly and fun).

With a HIGHLY INACCURATE view of both myself AND God himself. 

And today, I find many Christians who believe in grace and Jesus and all things “God is good” walk in these exact same feelings and fears today – often without any awareness that these feelings are rumbling around in them

Creating a hyper-vigilance that can’t be turned off

And that is sometimes celebrated and taught in churches today.  

Here’s what had to change for me:

I’m going to share with you how to see yourself and God more accurately..

Without man-made Doctrines Of Fear clouding your vision..

Because by now after reading this, if you’ve gotten this far, you’ve related to a lot of what I’ve said..

Perhaps articulating something you hadn’t been able to put your finger on.

Well, my friend – Jesus is holding out to you a brand new level of freedom to tap into..

The question is – will you relinquish control, man-made doctrines long enough to not just hear it, but absorb it and live differently because of it?

Over my relationship with God, and lots of correction of my SIGHT in communion with Him, he taught me about himself.

About his heart, as a father. 

That he wants what is BEST for me. 

(Feel into that)

The God who created you wants His best for you!

This becomes then more about the ABUNDANCE of what God holds out FOR you, than it is about the LIMITATION of what he’s asking you to avoid (for your own good)

He’s saying “Sunshine sparkle, don’t go there, it won’t be good for you and I want and have soooooo much more for you!”

It’s not about the limitation and restriction

It’s about how much he loves you and has for you

It’s not about asking “is this right or wrong?” “How close can I get to the line?” “Am I good or bad?”

It IS about asking – “Is this God’s best FOR ME?”

It’s about aligning with the will and heart of God –  instead of being scared to disappoint or upset him.

This changes the energy of the relationship

from daughter who walks on eggshells, constantly checking herself and worried about God’s reaction, worrying about disappointing Him – to one of life partnership with the Father.

Co-creating, together, from that relationship.

And no longer about restriction and limitation, but instead enjoying abundance.

I’ve learned that what God holds out in his hand FOR ME, is always far better than the things he tells me to avoid – or even better than I could dream and envision for myself! 

This is how you live life with God, without religion, without the “rules” and limitations – communing, receiving love, being delighted in, being guided 

And walking in alignment to God’s best. 

I promise when you do this WITH God, you’ll walk in so much more self-worth, significance and self-respect

And you’ll make ripples of impact just from showing up in the world while communing with the God who wants more for you.

God Will Fight This Smear Campaign For You. Here’s How:

That smear campaign you’re going through – God hasn’t abandoned you. He promises to fight for you, here’s how: 

Not only have I lived through at least 3 wild smear campaigns, I survived WITH God.

He has not abandoned you. He’s got you, I promise – even when it doesn’t feel like it. Stay faithful. Let him work:

– “the mouths of liars will be silenced” Psalm 63:11

– you’ll hide in the shadow of his wings

– he will be for you a shelter

– he will send angel armies to guard your life

– he will rescue you because he delights in you

– he will bring you out into a spacious place

– he will revive you

– he will increase your honour and comfort you Psalm 71:21

– he redeems your life from the pit. Psalm 103:4

– he renews your youth. Psalm 103:5

– he will trample your enemies Psalm 108:13

– he will restore what the enemy has stolen

– he will never leave or forsake you

– if they attack, you will not be overcome

“Adonai knows how the wholehearted suffer, but their inheritance lasts forever.” Psalm 37:18

Get into the Psalms – especially Psalm 37! “Don’t be upset by evildoers or envious of those who do wrong, for soon they will either like grass…”

King David knew exactly what it feels like to be smeared, hunted and lied about..

He was honest with God about what he felt

“Pour out your heart before him..” Psalm 62:8

And to our benefit he wrote and wrote about his heart’s cry to God.

Don’t let what they’re saying about you change the way you feel about God. They’re not that powerful.

He’s got you!

For I am convinced that no smear campaign or religious abuse, no liar, nor darkness, no enemy, no family dysfunction can separate you from the love of God through Jesus.

How God Will Protect You: Smear Campaigns

That smear campaign you’re going through – God will use to PROTECT you. Here’s how: 

God turned each of the smear campaigns started against me into the greatest form of protection of me:

– it revealed who was for me vs not

– it liberated me from unhealthy spaces

– it redirected me into what was for me, going to serve me, and my future

– it taught me masses of discipline, discernment and boundaries

– it brought me closer to God – knowing him in the more isolated seasons

– it liberated me from caring about what others thought about me 

– it was training ground for solid leadership anchored in trust, sovereignty and discernment

– it liberated me from the exhaustion rhst comes from trying to right the record

You’re out here feeling vulnerable, God’s standing right beside you with his arm around you with a cheeky little grin. Rubbing his hands together because he knows how many angels he already assigned to this milleniums ago..

YOU DON’T NEED THEM TO BELIEVE OR UNDERSTAND YOU. I promise.

What they meant for evil, God will absolutely turn it around so that it becomes favour 🔥

He’s got you!

How To Overcome A Smear Campaign – Trusting God With Your Reputation

One of the biggest things I worked on in therapy through many smear campaigns was learning to trust God with my reputation.

Many years later the fruits of that have shown over and over again.

People circling back and apologising for believing what was said about me

And others apologising for perpetuating it.

People from the past following and benefiting from my work now – because, let’s face it – they are STILL stuck back where I was..

In man-made religious doctrine, silencing of women and controlling leaders.

Not only that, but instead of needing them to apologise, or for me to be vindicated in some grand public way to be able to move forward in life..

I have been free this whole time.

Let that sink in.

Some of these smear campaigns are over a decade old.

Instead of spending my energy fighting it (energy you most certainly will not get back, and will burn out doing so).

Instead of trying to get revenge

Instead of trying to get people to see the truth..

I chose to do the work to learn to trust God with my reputation..

Even when every fibre of my being was crying out over the injustice

Even when the anger still burned bright in my chest

And I was reeling from all of the effects and consequences of what had happened.

And yes – even when I could not see how God could change it

When it felt like darkness surrounded me

When I was standing – alone (in the natural)

When if seemed there was no light at the end of the tunnel..

It was all stepping me to freedom.

Freedom from the control (because smear campaigns never come out of healthy environments)

Freedom from the fear of what others think of me which has liberated me to lead in a way most are not capable of

And a freedom to let go and ttust God instead of carrying it all.. striving.. fighting and burning out.

I took the smallest measure of faith – all that I could muster – and placed it in The One who told me he loved me, who delighted in me, whose throne sits on a foundation of justice.

And then I chose to spend my energy on me:

Recalibrating to truth, realigning my identity, rebuilding my newly aligned life.

Allowing God into the spaces that mattered to me most

Allowing him to carry what I couldn’t, and knew I didn’t want to.

Friend,

You don’t NEED them to understand you

You don’t NEED to correct everythjng and make it right

You don’t even need ONE other person to see through everything and believe you and “get it” (though I know it’s nice!!!)

You need to let go, and focus on YOU.

You need to onboard guidance that will keep you focused on who you are born to be – not who they say you are.

You will never regret taking the high road with God.

He is the God of resurrection, restoration and you can trust

It might not be how you want

Or when you want

But he’s got it.

It’s time to focus on you.

Recalibrate to the truth of who you were designed to be – and not who they said you are.

Leave those that would choose to believe the worst .. for truth will catch up with them eventually and by then you will have severed the attachment, and need for their approval anyway

(Which serves you as a leader as a super power 🔥)

When you do – they will become so irrelevant to your life and future

And you will be whole, focused and free..

Making the wild levels of impact you were born for.

Disillusioned With Church? Me too.

I’m so disillusioned with church at the moment..

This is not a feeling that’s with me all the time, and it’s also not something I’m unfamiliar with – as someone who has personally walked through religious abuse in many scenarios from family to church.

Last year – I had to report an elderly man to church leadership for attempting to groom me..

It being handled with beautiful clarity, calm, wisdom, dignity and grace by most of hte leadership.. (a very healing experience for me)

(And then cold dismissiveness by ONE)

And then watching over and over – as abuse is being exposed in churches and “christians” again and again.

Feeling the extent of it

Feeling the deep heavy weight of the denial, of those who do not want to look at it, talk about it

Of those who want to pretend it does not exist..

Of those who need more “evidence” for things already clearly seen and known

Of those the Holy Spirit would reveal to them as darkness if they would only ask and walk with him.

If they would only seek wise counsel and not the kind that “circles the wagons” of what and who is most familiar.

And then we come to this week..

When on Facebook a few days ago I accidentally stumbled on a video, recognising the man featured – a self-proclaimed “prophet”

A man who not only attends the church I have, but has been platformed there before. Who I have met before..

After watching the 5.5 hour expose/confrontation on YouTube – where he was accused of data mining, lying, and extensive cover up of his actions

Where other senior leaders around him were also covering up for him… enabling him..

Those who cannot SEE because of their own bias, own ego

Those who enabled and continue to enable him by platforming him

Or those who “don’t have time” to watch the full expose / confrontation to view all the evidence of abuser – but will sit down to watch hours of Netflix every night..

It has been a long season of feeling sick to my stomach about the darkness hiding in church.

But here’s the thing:

I still believe in her..

I still love her..

I still believe there’s alot of good in her

I still believe she’s capable of meaningful, impactful change

Of up-levelling discernment, wisdom (particularly around who is allowed to be platformed)

Of becoming more trauma-informed

Of becoming more spiritually discerning and aware

Of becoming more protective of the sheep

Of valuing truth tellers

Of knowing that such darkness does exist

That it will abuse without remorse

That it will lie to your face

That it will cover it up

And that it will exploit your weaknesses and ego as a leader to enable it.

I am writing about it..

Not because I need your sympathy or concern..

Not because I’m bitter and aggressive

Not because I hate the church

Not because I see church leadership as “bad”

But because I want you to know, that if you feel disillusioned with church at times, you’re not alone.

This weight was never ours to carry..

And I’m carrying it straight into the arms of the One who has the capacity to hold it

The One who brings true, deep, lasting healing and transformation to church as we know it

And I’m leaving it there..

.. so that emotionally, it’s not something that’s weighing me down anymore

And I’m FREE to focus on what’s truly important: people, purpose and communion with the King.

Oh God – continue to shine your light and expose and cleanse them, and us, and me.
