In this episode of the Empowered Homes Podcast, hosts Bobby Cooley and Meghan Landi sit down with pastor and author Shane Pruitt to talk about his latest Bible study, Not My Jesus: Reclaiming the Truth, Rejecting the Idols. Shane shares about his family, ministry, and the heart behind writing this timely study designed to help believers of all ages recognize and reject distorted versions of Jesus shaped by culture and personal preference.

 From “Genie Jesus” to “Mascot Jesus” to “Distant Jesus,” Shane walks through a few of the eight counterfeit versions of Christ outlined in the study, revealing the subtle lies they present and the real danger they pose to our faith and families. The conversation also turns practical as Shane offers wisdom for parents on how to disciple their kids through these cultural distortions and anchor them in the truth of who Jesus really is. Plus, we get a glimpse into what family discipleship looks like in the Pruitt home. 

If you’re a parent, leader, or anyone looking to strengthen your faith and help others do the same, this episode will challenge and encourage you to rediscover the real Jesus: holy, gracious, and powerfully personal.
