In this emotional and eye-opening conversation, we discuss the ways Christianity seems to be losing its depth in today’s culture. We talk about the importance of modesty, how seeking validation from celebrities can cloud our spiritual walk, and the disconnect between the fruits of the Spirit and the actions we see in the world. Through sharing our personal spiritual journeys, we highlight the need to grow beyond being "baby Christians" and embrace the guidance of the Holy Spirit to live fully for God. This episode is a call to return to the true essence of faith and let our lives reflect Christ in every way.

We talk about:

Seeking Validation from Celebrities: How the need for approval from the world can weaken our walk with God.
