Realizations, Part 2
Episode Description:
In this episode of Heart of the Matter Radicalized, Shawn continues exploring twenty years of realizations about God, faith, and the end of material religion. Opening with a heartfelt call to pure faith in Yeshua—the author and finisher of belief—he contrasts the living Christ with the dead weight of institutional control.
Shawn challenges traditional views of God’s nature, clarifying that YAHAVAH is One eternal Being—spirit, power, and presence—made known through His Son, Yeshua. He lays out a series of “if/then” reflections showing how fulfilled faith has moved from law to liberty, from material religion to spiritual education, from worshiping through systems to serving through love.
In his closing reflection, Shawn critiques how organized religion “protects its brand” rather than embracing the broken souls Christ came to save. Using examples from culture, business, and the Statue of Liberty, he reminds listeners that the true brand of God is mercy—the tainted cross and the resurrected King who welcomes all.
