Author: Laura Farhy November 17, 2025 Duration: 3:38
Did you know we are on Youtube , too? Have you ever found yourself in a moment of deep doubt, questioning whether God is truly good? You're not alone. This fundamental question—Is God good?—is one that Christians throughout history have wrestled with, especially during seasons of uncertainty, pain, or confusion. But what if we're asking the wrong question entirely? #deconstructingchristianity #progressivechristianity #christianfaith #christianpodcast #jesusmessage

In a landscape where many feel spiritually uprooted, Spiritually Homesteading | How to Lose Your Religion & Keep Your Jesus offers a different path. Hosted by Laura Farhy, this podcast moves beyond the familiar terrain of deconstruction to focus on the practical, often messy work of rebuilding a personal faith. It’s built on the metaphor of homesteading-the idea that a deep, sustainable spiritual life requires getting your hands dirty, planting seeds of curiosity, and tending to your own beliefs with intention. This space is specifically for those who feel disillusioned or wounded by institutional religion yet still feel a pull toward the essence of Jesus. Each episode is a conversation for the spiritually curious and hopeful, exploring how to separate cultural dogma from core spiritual truth. When you listen to this podcast, you’ll find honest discussions about navigating doubt, reclaiming personal agency in faith, and discovering what it means to cultivate a belief system that is genuinely your own. It’s about empowerment and ownership, creating a spiritual home from the ground up.
