Podcast: Real Without Religion with James Kiger

👣 Episode Summary:

In this opening episode, James Kiger — a former pastor turned spiritual teacher — shares the raw, personal story behind Real Without Religion. From questioning hell and the rapture to rediscovering his own divine spark, James invites listeners into a conversation that’s honest, unpolished, and real. No sermons. No scripts. Just the stuff we’ve all been thinking but were afraid to say out loud.

If you’ve ever asked:

• “Is this really what Jesus meant?”
• “Do I have to throw away everything to be spiritual?”
• “What if the divine has been within me all along?”

…then this podcast might be for you.
