Happy and Holy | Blake Guichet | Episode 309


Listen Later

In this solo episode, Blake reflects on her personal journey of faith, grappling with long-held beliefs about happiness and holiness. Raised in a church environment that emphasized suffering and purity culture, she explores how these teachings shaped her understanding that God prioritizes holiness over happiness. However, a profound realization comes when she discovers Psalm 128, which directly states that happiness is a blessing for those who fear the Lord and walk in His ways. This revelation challenges her previous beliefs and prompts a reevaluation of happiness within her faith journey, emphasizing that God's desire for his children includes happiness alongside holiness.
