When we buy into religion we end up speaking, sounding, even looking like everyone else within that corporate branded identity. Same thoughts. Same beliefs. Same well-defined doctrines; and if you step out of line and have questions that doesn't fit that corporate identity: guess what: chances are you might be silenced, or even booted out.
I don't mind if I don't fit the corporate identity of religion. Iām stoked to have a relationship that is unique with my creator.
I simply want to walk freely everyday, with an open mind to learn new things and an open heart to connect with God.
This is what the Jesus of scripture promotes. Matthew 11:28-30
