In this episode of the Blessed and Bossed Up podcast, Tatum shares a replay from a live discussion with Dr. Sharla Walker. Together, they dive into the importance of building spiritual discernment and the need for biblical literacy in the lives of believers. They emphasize how crucial it is to test the spirits by the Spirit of God to ensure that the messages, prophecies, and words received are truly from Him. The episode covers practical steps to qualify and verify these spiritual messages using scripture and personal reflection. Tatum and Dr. Sharla also discuss the dangers of turning Christianity into an aesthetic rather than a genuine lifestyle and address common objections believers may have when instructed by God to take actions like stepping away from social media. The episode concludes with an encouragement to trust God deeply, not because of external successes but because of His unwavering faithfulness and love.
