 The Christian faith is not spiritual gullibility, rather it is a journey of growth in understanding what the Father is saying and where He is leading. Discernment is a gift referred to in scripture as 'distinguishing between spirits ' (1 Corin. 12:10). Discernment is also the ability to judge well. Whether it’s judging between right or wrong, recognizing a holy moment, discerning a crime, or spirit of witchcraft, it's the school of the Spirit. Know the difference between right and wrong judgement and gain a better understanding of discernment in today's age of tolerance as Jenna and Danielle unpack the reality of living by the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.  - John 7:24

I am the sprouting vine and you’re my branches. As you live in union with me as your source, fruitfulness will stream from within you—but when you live separated from me you are powerless. - John 15:5
