    Christ Consciousness: Not a Religious Cop-Out but a Spiritual Practice, Being Spirit-Led, & Krista's BU Testimony

    Krista explains the transcendent, rewarding practice of following God's Spirit (which can take a lifetime to master).  She gives a personal example: her inspiring story of applying to a Master of Public Health (MPH) program, the ups and downs of the process, and the nearly miraculous results!  Finally, she shares her take on Christ Consciousness. Unlike people who use the phrase to accept Christ's philosophy but reject His practice, she explains it as Yeshua's awareness and alignment with God's Spirit. This episode leans more towards the "devout" end of the spectrum but can encourage and invoke hope in those with doubts.  Book mentioned: Make a Move: How to Stop Wavering and Make Decisions in a Disorienting World by Stephanie Williams O'Brien https://amzn.to/39j9qE9 Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): http://uppbeat.io/t/vens-adams/adventure-is-calling License code: QBJHKXDLT7PMTI4I https://anchor.fm/devoutwithdoubts/support

Emily was born into the Independent Fundamental Baptist Church but has recently renounced it and the larger institution of Christianity, largely because of the many cases of abuse found in evangelical churches, some of which she has witnessed firsthand. Emily lives in Madison, Alabama with her Golden Pyrenees and her garden. She works as a freelance screenwriter and music teacher and is passionate about the arts, autism advocacy, and mental health healing for all.    https://www.instagram.com/em_williquette_/   Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): http://uppbeat.io/t/vens-adams/adventure-is-calling License code: QBJHKXDLT7PMTI4I   https://anchor.fm/devoutwithdoubts/support
