21 min - OTB 02: The Problem with Manifesting: A Christian Perspective with Rachel Tenney of The Voca Society
In this month's episode of Outside the Bubble, I dive deep into the popular concept of manifesting and explore its implications through a Christian lens with my special guest, Rachel Tenney of The Voca Society. Manifesting, often described as the practice of bringing something tangible into your life through attraction and belief, has become a mainstream trend. But is it compatible with Christian beliefs?
Rachel Tenney shares her insights on why manifesting can be problematic for Christians, discussing the spiritual, theological, and practical issues associated with this practice. We'll examine how manifesting contrasts with biblical teachings, and Rachel will offer alternative approaches that align with Christian values and how we can better focus on faith and trust in God’s plans rather than our own desires.
Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the intersection between contemporary spiritual practices and traditional Christian doctrines. Whether you're a believer questioning the concept of manifesting or someone curious about its popularity, this episode provides a clear, informed perspective that's not to be missed.
About Today’s Guest
Rachel Tenney is a Christian, wife to Joe, mama to Meira and Luther, and entrepreneur (whenever she gets a spare moment!). She loves bougie coffee, deep conversations, and applying biblical theology to the practical issues women face in their daily lives. When she started her journey as an entrepreneur, she went looking for resources about applying her faith to her unique lifestyle as a Christian, a woman, and an entrepreneur and was surprised to find very little that blended all three things. Eventually, she started The Voca Society out of her own desire for solid resources that meet that criteria, and loves providing a hub of resources, support, and community for women walking the same path!Connect With Rachel:
