In this episode, we'll confront a hard non-microwaved truth: Not everything culture celebrates is harmless. From viral mantras like “live your truth” and “do you” to deeper societal shifts around race, justice, identity, and pleasure—have we been drinking poison dressed in the clothes of freedom, fun, or fairness?

Do you naturally lift people up—or feel called to call them out? In this episode, we'll wrestle with the tension between calling out arrogance and lifting up the ashamed, because both require Spirit-led wisdom. One of the worst things we can do is kick someone when they’re already down—but just as dangerous is empowering someone who's stuck in sin and denial.

In this episode we'll dig into the dangerous false peace that’s killing spiritual growth inside our homes.

Who do you say God is? A friend? A jerk? A judge? A healer? A provider? So often, we reduce the Creator of the universe to a single role that suits our comfort, our desires, or our limitations. In this episode, we’ll dive into how we limit God's identity—choosing his mercy but rejecting his justice, calling him Father but ignoring his discipline, seeing him as our provider while forgetting his holiness. Let’s wrestle with the truth of who God is.
