Nothing says “healthy childhood spirituality” quite like waking up from a nap, finding an empty house, and assuming Jesus took everyone except you. Tim Schram grew up as the golden-boy organist in the Assemblies of God, trapped between rapture panic, relentless anti-gay preaching, and the growing realization that the person his church condemned was him. In this episode, Tim talks about marriage, coming out, being threatened by his own brother, losing lifelong friendships, and rebuilding a spirituality beyond biblical abuse. We also explore speaking in tongues without Pentecostal dogma, finding God outside the Bible, and why healing does not require returning to the thing that harmed you. This is a story about leaving fear behind without necessarily leaving mystery behind.
