What if the Holy Spirit was never outside of you—but always the voice of remembrance within?

In this episode of the Unchurching Podcast, Clint and Rachelle dive into the multifaceted nature of the Holy Spirit. They share personal experiences and cultural perspectives, explore how different denominations frame the Spirit, and discuss the neurobiology of worship and collective experience.

This conversation reframes the Holy Spirit—not as a distant force to be invited in, but as the inner guide, comforter, and reminder of oneness with God and with ourselves. Along the way, they unpack themes of fear, control, atonement, and mystical connection, ultimately pointing to the Spirit as a voice of awakening.

✨ You are not separate from God.
✨ The Spirit reminds us of who we truly are.
✨ Awakening is a journey of connection, not fear.
