The \"old God\" is a false God that uses reward systems, shame, and sometimes spiritual manipulation. To embrace a new God, you can: 1. Explicitly name false beliefs about God, 2. Identify their impact on relationships, nervous system3. Reality-test beliefs through scripture and Christ’s character4. Examine how the belief once protected parts of the self5. Grieve the loss of the familiar but harmful God-image, and 6. Use rituals (termination letter, speaking aloud, burning notes) to “fire” it.To close, Austin recommends John Eldredge’s One Minute Pause App feature \"20 Days to Experience Jesus.”Make a donation and become an Outsider!Follow us on social media!
