Hey friends, welcome back! You probably noticed that this week’s episode released on Wednesday instead of Monday — that’s the new day for The Average Pursuit!

This episode dives deep into one of the hardest truths: respect for God without trust in God is rebellion dressed in worship. We talk about what it means to move beyond performance-based faith into surrendered obedience — where reverence becomes relationship.

This week we strip away the act and get honest about the difference between outward reverence and inward surrender. You’ll hear stories of struggle, moments of conviction, and hope for every believer tired of performing for God instead of walking with Him.

Every story, line, and pause leads to one call:
👉 Lay down the act. Step out of the spotlight. Let reverence become surrender.
