In this episode of the UPD Podcast, hosts Andy Lamb and Jonny Hanson dive headfirst into spiritual warfare, the trap of pride, and the hunt for contentment in a world hooked on achievement. Sharing hard stories from their own lives, they make the argument for keeping Jesus at the core when everything’s hitting the fan. Pride’s a slick liar—props you up, then drops you flat—while society’s “get more, be more” noise scrambles your soul. They hit hard on humility as the fix, biblical truth as the rock, and forgiveness as the way out of old baggage. Jonny and Andy unpack identity—when the wins fade, who’s left?—and pit the cheap thrill of worldly success against the deep, lasting fill of eternal focus. Trusting Jesus through the grind, leaning on gratitude for peace, and giving big turn the tables on selfish pride. They wrap with a shout to real faith community and the grit of prayer to anchor a content heart. It’s unfiltered, straight-up talk—faith over flash, every time.
