You can pray every day, read your Bible cover to cover, and still feel like something in your life isn't working. This conversation exists for that exact frustration.

Rahul and Van Pillay return to the subject of abiding — not as a theological concept, but as something you can actually test. Van introduces the checkpoint she uses in her own life: if your life isn't producing peace, health, or freedom, the question isn't whether you're trying hard enough. It's whether you're actually connected.

Rahul adds a teaching that reframes the whole conversation: the old wineskin can't hold new wine, and if you're praying for a new level of blessing without being willing to change internally, you may already know why it isn't landing. Van gets honest about a season where she did everything "right" and still felt distant, and what actually shifted it.

This is a conversation for anyone who's tired of performing faith and wants to know what it actually feels like to be connected — whether you grew up in church or you're just starting to wonder if any of this is real.
