GIVE ME JESUS: Without Religion is a raw and deeply personal journey out of guilt-based religion and into the freeing, life-giving love of Jesus Christ. Raised in a Southern Baptist church and saved at the age of seven, the author was taught to follow rules, fear judgment, and stay quiet in the face of spiritual discomfort. But over time, that old version of faith began to crack-and when it finally fell apart, something far more beautiful was revealed. This book is not an attack on God. It's a declaration of love for the real Jesus-the one who walked among the broken, forgave without condition, and never demanded performance in exchange for grace. If you've been wounded by the church, silenced by shame, or left wondering if you're still "good enough" for God, this book is for you. If you're still holding on to Jesus but have let go of the religious systems that tried to control you, you're not alone. This is not about walking away from faith. It's about walking toward it-with your eyes open, your soul unburdened, and your heart finally at rest. You don't need religion. You just need Jesus.
