Description

In this episode, we hear from Sarah, who grew up in a strict Pentecostal church where being “worldly” was something to be avoided for a committed believer. While there were positives to being part of such a close-knit community, Sarah eventually began to question the version of reality she was taught to believe. This journey of self-discovery led her to break away from the church, seeking freedom and her own definition of a fulfilled and balanced life.

Although many values from her upbringing remain a part of her, Sarah’s perspective on faith has shifted as she has chosen a way of life that embraces love and acceptance, leaving behind the fear and shame that once defined her beliefs.
