Holy Ghosted: Spiritual Anxiety and Religious Trauma [271]

Flying Free Podcast

Author, Tiffany Yecke Brooks has done it again with her new book, Holy Ghosted: Spiritual Anxiety, Religious Trauma, and the Language of Abuse. (Don't you absolutely LOVE that title? She's an amazing writer.)

Have you ever been ghosted by someone? They disappeared from your life, seemingly into thin air? Have you ever been worried that God might ghost you, especially if you don’t dot your “i”s” and cross your “t’s?” Spiritual anxiety is common among Christians, and Dr. Tiffany Yecke Brooks wants to break that down with you to show that even though people may try to scare you into believing that God will ghost you if you don't do what they want you to do, that's not who God is.

In this episode, Tiffany answers questions such as:

  • “What is the definition of spiritual anxiety?” 
  • “How do I overcome spiritual anxiety?” 
  • “What are some different ways of looking at commonly told Bible stories?” 
  • And more!
