The Recovering Christian Entrepreneur: Money, Mindset and Marketing Kam & Karla Snow

Ever felt church hurt? Ever had an experience of your faith where it hurt but you didn't know why?

Maybe you're actively deconstructing your faith, or maybe you've had an experience of being burnt out from ministry and you can't figure out how the way people treated you reconciles with the Jesus you know.

If any of these things are true, you may have experienced religious trauma. In this episode, we discuss the viewpoint that if you just had the right teaching and knew enough of the right stuff...then you wouldn't have been hurt.

We dissect the toxicity of this belief system and the experiences that both Kam and Karla have had with well-meaning people who minimized the hurt or trauma.

In this episode, you'll discover: - Why "knowing the right things" can't possibly prevent hurt (and how to respond to people who put this on you)- Why you can "have everything right" and still create an environment where dysfunction and pain arises- How to have hope in the midst of healing from religious trauma and searching for Jesus

We took a break from the podcast for 2 months, somewhat unintentionally. In this podcast episode, we provide an update, including: why Karla struggles to call herself a "Christian", why Kam isn't a fan of "deconstruction" and where we're going with this podcast and community.

How often have you heard that money is the root of all evil? Or that if you give when you don't have much, God values that more?

There's a lot of misconceptions and mistruths about money and the Bible.

In this short segment, we take a look at the story of the Widow's Offering, found in Mark 12:41-44.

The popular interpretation of this passage is that it's about giving to God...even if you have nothing left. But what if there's more to this story than the popular narrative we've heard in church?

And for entrepreneurs...what if some of the toxic money beliefs we have in our head were in part fed by this narrow interpretation?

We dive into 3 toxic beliefs that stem from this story.
