No More Cherry-Picking, Just Jesus - An Interview w/ Karli Lyman

Claire Dalton Season 1 Episode 22

Welcome to Episode 22 of the Clairity Podcast! In this deeply moving and eye-opening episode, we have the privilege of talking with Karli Lyman from "Karli Searches and Prays." Karli opens up about her profound spiritual journey, taking us from her days as a dedicated missionary in the LDS church to her eventual departure and newfound faith in Jesus Christ.

Karli recounts her time at the Provo MTC and the extreme obedience and peculiar rules imposed by her mission president, including trading goods for baptisms and applying intense pressure on potential converts.

Hear about Karli's early love for God and the scriptures, her enthusiastic participation in church activities, and her decision at a young age to serve a mission. She shares how personal scripture study and prayer led her to question church doctrines and discover inconsistencies, ultimately guiding her decision to leave the LDS church.

Learn about the emotional and relational toll of her decision, including the disownment by extended family and the struggles within her community. Discover how Karli and her family found peace, healing, and a closer relationship with Jesus through non-denominational Christian practices, emphasizing direct faith in Jesus over following human leaders.

Karli highlights the love and acceptance she found in her new spiritual community, contrasting it with the judgmental environment she left behind. This supportive network has been crucial in her family's spiritual growth and well-being.

Join us for this heartfelt conversation that underscores the power of personal faith, the courage to seek spiritual truth, and the healing found in embracing a relationship with Jesus Christ.
