Jesus for Mormons #28: Burning it down

Kai Van Leuven reflects on his emotional journey after leaving the Mormon Church, struggling to reconcile fond memories with the realization that its teachings were false. He compares this to Stockholm Syndrome, where ex-Mormons may still feel emotionally bound to the church despite rejecting its claims. Kai discusses the challenge of letting go of deeply ingrained beliefs and shares how coaching wrestling became a new focus. Inspired by coaching and the Bible, he symbolically closed that chapter by burning items from his Mormon past—garments, scriptures, and his missionary tag. This act represented releasing emotional baggage and embracing personal growth, encouraging others to let go of whatever holds them back.
