Why can’t you get past the patterns and habits that seem to hold you back—even when you love God and want to grow?

In this episode, Candace and Madi talk honestly about the small, unconfessed compromises that shape a life over time. They unpack why sin rarely starts big, the difference between falling into sin and choosing to live in it, and why the fear of the Lord is rooted in reverence, not distance.

Madi shares a powerful story about double red flags at the beach and a lifeguard pleading with people to get out of the water - not to ruin their fun, but to save their lives. Candace adds practical wisdom about daily surrender, prayer, Scripture, and learning to say “no” when it matters most.

They also respond to listener questions about prayer and marriage:

• Sheila: “Can you talk to God like he’s your best friend, or is that disrespectful?”

• Rita: Advice for a couple who are new to their faith and preparing for marriage
