This one’s personal. Really personal.This episode is for the ones who’ve been gaslit in the name of God.For those who loved the Divine so much they didn’t even realize they were being controlled because what they felt was so real, so powerful.This is for the ones who knew… something was off… but stayed quiet out of respect, or survival, or fear.It’s for the ones like me.
🌹 Segment 1: My Mother, My First Prophet
I want to start with something sacred my mom.She was a missionary. She held high rank in the church. She was respected. Anointed, even.And because of that, I felt like royalty in those pews. People knew her name, and that made me feel protected. Covered. Like I belonged to something holy.And I did. But not in the way I thought.As a little girl, I had questions. Quiet ones.But I never questioned God.Because I felt God.Not in sermons…But in the way my mom would lay her hands on a wounded bird and it would fly again.Or how she'd place her hands on our car and it would start when nothing else worked.That wasn’t religion. That was spirit.Even then, I told myself:“I will never stop believing in God. Because God is real.”But what I didn’t know at the time…was that what I felt the miracles, the warmth, the knowing that was Spirit inside of me.It was always in me.And it didn’t need religion to validate it.
💔 Segment 2: When Real Becomes Control
That’s the trap for so many of us.We feel something real, and we assume it must mean everything that surrounds it is also true.But feeling God doesn’t mean the system is holy.Feeling power doesn’t mean the structure is safe.I didn’t know that I could separate the two until I had to.I had to let go of religion without letting go of God.Because when you drop the rules… and keep the spirit…It still works. Actually it works better.Because you’re no longer giving your power away in the name of control.
🎶 Segment 3: Why I Made This Album
This is why I created Sermons I Never Heard in Church.It’s an album of remembrance.Not rebellion. Not mockery. Just the truth.It’s a sound healing for anyone who’s ever felt bound, scared, silenced, or small in the name of righteousness.Each song is a deactivation of shame… and an activation of power.You’ll hear the wound in some tracks.You’ll hear the rising in others.And the last two songs? That’s where the veil lifts.
🌍 Segment 4: A Real-Life Prophecy
What I saw… and what I know deep in my bones…is that this isn’t just metaphor. The veil will lift for real. For all.An event is coming. A moment where the lies can’t hide anymore.Not in politics. Not in pulpits. Not in promises.Truth is going to flood in like light through stained glass.And people will remember who they are.And where God lives.Because She never left.She was just buried under sermons.
🕊️ Closing Message
To anyone listening who’s been afraid to walk away from religion just know:You don’t have to walk away from God.You’re walking toward Her.Toward the truth.Toward yourself.You can release the doctrine and still keep the Divine.You can let go of control and still carry power.And you are not betraying your faith you’re reclaiming it.This isn’t rebellion.This is remembering.I’m proud of you for even listening this far.And I love you for being brave enough to unlearn and begin again.With reverence,Renee MimsFrequency Keeper. Daughter of Rebirth.
