28 JUN 2024 · Today we are breaking down historically who Jezebel was. We will be talking about how there is no term in the Bible called a Jezebel spirit nor is there any reference to an evil spirit being named after a human being. I'll share the common rebuttal points on this and how we can respond with scripture. 💖FREE support group for healing from spiritual abuse: https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages/68005 💖Email me to work 1:1 shelbyb@bcmltd.us 💖More resources: https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=34053 #spiritualabuse #christianlifecoach #deconstruction #churchhurt #innerhealing #jezebel #theologymatters

6 JUN 2024 · We all have disappointment! It's normal and it's unfortunately apart of life. For those of you who've been part of a high-control religion, you've probably been made to feel like you have to respond perfectly when disappointment comes. When we don't respond "perfectly" because we aren't perfect...we beat ourselves up. In today's video, I share with you how I'm currently processing disappointing news in my life and scriptural references to Jesus' empathy and compassion with our questions and disappointment in him. 💖Email me to work 1:1 shelbyb@bcmltd.us 💖More resources: https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=34053 #spiritualabuse #christianlifecoach #deconstruction #churchhurt #innerhealing

30 MAY 2024 · People pleasing is a coping mechanism we adopt when we feel in danger. It's a way to protect ourselves from vulnerability. To it's core, people pleasing is deceptive because it's dishonest. Women and men in toxic religious environments often find themselves adopting this coping mechanism thinking they are doing what God has called them to do which is "love well." Loving well does not mean loving at the expense of your mental, emotional, and physical health. In today's video, we break all of this down and how to heal from people pleasing!

25 APR 2024 · So much of how you see yourself now is based on beliefs you adopted about yourself in the past. If you believe you're a failure, you're going to look to confirm that in everything you do in life! What a miserable way for us to live. It's time to break off the shame... Break off the doubt... Or the unbelief in yourself or God... All of this will only hold you back from all the good things that are awaiting you. You're not a failure. It's okay. Just keep going. 💖Email me to work 1:1 shelby@pilgrimageandco.com 💖More resources: https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=34053 #spiritualabuse #christianlifecoach #deconstruction

5 APR 2024 · I see people slap this verse in my comment section on videos like a "gotcha moment." They almost snicker to themselves as to how they can badger people into attending a church building on a Sunday morning. I want to make this clear. The church is wonderful! I love God and His people. If you attend a church on a Sunday morning that is great! This isn't meant to discourage that practice it is merely meant to respond to critics who say Sunday service is mandatory. My community is filled with people healing from spiritual abuse. It's normal and really healthy to take time off from the institution of the church while healing from church abuse. You aren't "sinning" for not going for a bit. It's normal and totally okay.

1 MAR 2024 · It’s so important that we understand the meaning behind commonly misused verses like “Do not touch God’s anointed.” For a long time, I grappled with the confusion and doubt around this verse. Should I share my story? Would I be cursed for speaking out against “God’s anointed” people? It’s a dilemma many find themselves in today. It’s unclear whether leaders exploiting these verses genuinely believe in their twisted interpretation or knowingly employ manipulative tactics. I assume there is probably both. Regardless, open conversations like these are essential to unveil the verses that silence us or shackle us in fear.
