Righteousness isn't a behavior standard - it's quite literally the standing of the Father, and it's where He's invited you to stand, live, and operate from. In this episode, we discuss how many of the patriarchs and patron saints of the Church don't necessarily display righteousness in their initial actions, but how 'Standing Up' another time after what they've done it what makes room for God's Grace and Righteousness to flood in.

Interestingly, in Hebrew, the letter 'Mem' is represented by the number 40, and it stands for trial, adversity. So for our 40th episode, we wanted to talk about how walking with God does not exempt you from trial – in fact, it often means the opposite. But like Jesus' 40 days of fasting and temptation, He teaches us that standing up during these times of adversity are how righteousness can take deep root in our heart, mind, and life.
