Can you be a medium and still believe in God? If you were raised to believe that communicating with Spirit was dangerous, evil, or against your faith, developing mediumship can bring up some very complicated feelings.
I know because I lived with that fear for more than 30 years.
I was raised in a Christian home and taught that spirits could be harmful, and that what looked like a departed loved one could actually be something dangerous pretending to be them. So when I began having spiritual experiences of my own, I didn't just question what was happening. I questioned what it meant about me, my beliefs, and my relationship with God.
In this solo episode, I'm talking about the part of mediumship development that we don't discuss enough: what happens when you feel drawn to understand your abilities, but part of you is still afraid that developing them means turning away from your faith.
We'll explore:
-
Why religious conditioning can create fear around mediumship
-
The guilt that can come with exploring spiritual experiences
-
How fear can influence the way you interpret what you're experiencing
-
The difference between fear and genuine discernment
-
Why evidence, critical thinking, boundaries, and personal responsibility matter
-
How developing mediumship changed, rather than destroyed, my own relationship with God
-
Why you don't need to abandon your beliefs to begin asking questions
I'm not here to tell you what you should believe.
Your relationship with God, your creator, and Spirit is deeply personal. But I do think it's worth asking whether your fear comes from what you have actually experienced, or from what you were taught to expect.
For me, mediumship eventually became part of how I understood life, death, love, service, and the continuation of the soul.
And if you're standing in that uncomfortable place between curiosity and fear, you don't have to figure it all out today.
