Description

Talking with Michelle Wilding on conversations with God. Do you struggle with God? Is it possible that the Mormon version of God that most of us have known, is not really God?God is unconditional in his love, not conditional.I am sitting down with Michelle Wilding today as her relationship with God has always been fascinating to me, and frankly a bit challenging. Michelle shares with me how an eating disorder, a divorce, conversations with priesthood holders were huge gifts to her. Ultimately her divorce was what propelled Michelle into making a conscious choice to step out of religion and out of Mormonism. What would you do if you knew you needed to get divorced, you felt inspired by God, and when you sit down with your bishop & later the stake president they both told you that there was no way God would tell her to do that? As Michelle responded intelligently, she was a returned missionary after all so she knew her scriptures, she noticed that the authority leaders would get defensive. At one point, her Stake president asks her to show her proof that the church has condoned divorce. Miraculously her mom was given a conference talk later that night that was from Joseph F. Smith that said, "What is bound on earth, is bound on heaven. What is loosed on earth is also loosed in heaven. It would merciful for us to let two people who are incompatible to be able to separate ways and find people that they are more compatible with." Michelle shares that unless someone is asking, don't push & shake people's foundation. She didn't share with her family that she decided to leave for two years as she felt she wanted to be solid in her choice before she did so. There are SO many good nuggets in this episode I wish I could type them all out!

Formally titled Leaving Religion & Those We Leave Behind. This podcast is a guide to navigating the waters after religion and how to find your spiritual center. Each episode is full of stories, including mine, of leaving religion, our experiences through it and the gifts gained. My desire is to assist others in having a deeper understand to their path and that leaving does not have to be full of anger and hatred. This podcast is not about bashing any religion or people but is about our stories of moving through the different stages of grief and ultimately having a stronger relationship to themselves and with God. My hope is that as you listen you will feel a sense of peace, of inspiration, of connection and a place to feel that you are not alone in your journey.This podcast has been something I did not think I would ever do and yet it has been one of the biggest gifts in my life. May you find a little piece of hope here within these interviews. These podcast episodes will assist you in your deconstruction after religion.Would you like to share your story?
