Obedience didn’t suddenly become extreme. Our tolerance for discomfort changed.

In this episode, we talk honestly about why obedience to Jesus can start to feel unnecessary, awkward, or unrealistic in everyday life. Not because Christians reject Scripture, but because comfort, preference, and experience quietly reshape what feels reasonable.

We explore how obedience gets filtered, delayed, or replaced with feelings and outcomes, and why faith centered on experience will always struggle with obedience. This is a direct conversation about conviction, surrender, and what following Jesus actually looks like when obedience costs something.

If you’ve ever felt the tension between what you know Scripture says and what feels realistic to live out, this episode is for you.

Why Christians Drift Away from God: Causes, Signs, and Solutions

Most Christians don’t wake up one day and decide to walk away from God. More often, distance grows quietly through distraction, neglect, and spiritual complacency. In this episode of the Ain’t Quiet Podcast, we talk honestly about why Christians drift away from God, how to recognize the warning signs, and what it looks like to find your way back.

Using Hebrews 2:1 as a foundation, this conversation explores how drifting happens slowly and often unnoticed, even among sincere believers. We look at the subtle causes that pull our hearts away, the signs that reveal growing distance, and practical, biblical solutions that help restore closeness with Christ.

This episode is for anyone who feels spiritually off, distant, or dry and isn’t sure how it happened. More importantly, it’s a reminder that God has not moved and that return is possible.

Causes of Spiritual Drifting

• Distraction from good things that slowly replace the best things
• Busyness that crowds out time with God
• Neglect of Scripture and prayer
• Comfort replacing conviction
• Culture shaping beliefs more than God’s Word

Signs You May Be Drifting

• The Bible feels like a burden instead of a lifeline
• Prayer becomes rare or purely reactive
• Church and Christian community feel optional
• Spiritual standards slowly loosen
• Sin feels smaller and less serious
• Spiritual hunger fades
• Culture influences decisions more than Scripture

Biblical Solutions for Returning to God

• Re-anchoring your life in God’s Word
• Rebuilding a consistent rhythm of prayer
• Recommitting to gathering with other believers
• Guarding what influences your heart and mind
• Taking one intentional step of obedience today

These steps don’t earn God’s love. They help keep us close to the One who already loves us.

Culture is loud. Convictions get tested. And for many believers, silence feels easier.
In this episode, we talk honestly about the tension Christians feel in today’s world. Wanting to stand on Scripture without being attacked. Wanting peace but needing courage.

This is not about being combative. It is about being faithful.
It is about learning to let your life and your voice speak when the world stays silent.

How to Speak Truth Without Being Combative

1. Start with Scripture before opinion
Truth begins with God’s Word, not our reactions.

2. Choose relationship over reaction
Speak truth in a way that keeps the door open, not slammed shut.

3. Pray before you respond
Ask: “Will this point to Christ or just my frustration?”

4. Let your life speak louder than your words
Consistency and character make truth believable.

Is it possible to put Jesus first and let your kids play travel sports?
This is a conversation most Christian parents are having quietly... but today, we're talking about it out loud.
In this episode I share our family's real journey and how we starting out saying "no way" to travel sports, and how we slowly opened the door.  This episode shares how God surprised us by turning baseball weekends into something we never expected: a mission field.

If you've ever wrestled with:
* "Are we choosing sports over church?"
* "are we hurting our kids spiritually?"
* "Can travel sports glorify God?"
This episode will speak directly to you.

This isn't about guilt,  This is about priorities, purpose, and learning to follow Jesus wherever He places your family, even if that's at a ballpark.
