Today I am sharing with you a conversation I recently had with Brooke Castillo about religion. We discuss the difference between your relationship with God and your relationship with your religion, where God fits in the model and why our experience of God is so much stronger when we’re suffering. Thanks to Brooke for her willingness to come on the show. I know you’ll enjoy this episode.
I think it’s important when discussing the difference between “spirituality” and “religion” to note “priesthood and ordinances.” You can be a very spiritual person and have a great relationship with God, but only in the Church (religion) can you find the priesthood authority to perform the necessary saving ordinances.
Hey Jody!
I’m seriously considering joining The Life Coach School staring in April to get certified. I feel so good about it! My husband has serious concerns about the cost. He also wanted me to get someone’s opinion who has gone through it. Couldn’t think of a better person. Any thoughts you could share…
Hey Holly! I’m a young mom, a certified coach of the life coach school, and in love with what I’ve learned. I think it’s worth every penny, and it was a sacrifice for us financially. For what that’s worth! Best to you! I’m at @lizlangstoncoaching on IG/FB – see ya around
Do it. Best investment I ever made.
I absolutely loved this episode. Very good insights. I’m a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I’ve struggled with feeling that I don’t fit the mold of the right way of being a Mormon even though I have a relationship with God and Christ and I love the scriptures but also believe in what is taught by Brooke at Self-Coaching Scholars. Thank you so much for this episode!
You’re so welcome. Thanks for listening.
I loved this discussion on religion between you and Brooke! I feel so refreshed that neither of you came to the table with disrespect of the other’s views. This is a great example of how we can discuss religion and beliefs without an agenda to “disprove “ or argue.
I was able to take away from this podcast , respect and understanding from BOTH of you! (Win /Win! – sister/ cheering for /sister!)
Thank you!
Thanks friend.
Loved this episode so much!!
Jody,
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your podcasts! I’m the mother of 6 amazing, unique kiddos and I’m completely in love with my husband of 23 years! I would LOVE to bring my 18 year old daughter to your Thanksgiving Point seminar because she’s 18 and living life to the fullest! Your insights bring so much light that she would value as I do. However, your seminar is sold out. Is there any miraculous chance I could get 2 tickets for 2 very big fans of yours? Please. It will be life changing for us.
This fit in, I think, with the talks I heard yesterday at church. I love it when I can connect the dots! The difference between testimony and conversion, which I think is also the difference between religion and “spiritual maturity”, if you will.
I feel so enlightened and lightened after listening to most of your podcasts. Thank you
