Episode 41 Sunshine, You Can’t Pray the Red Flags Away
Subtitle: Spiritual Bypassing and Ignoring Truth for Hope
Sunshine, let’s talk about something we don’t say out loud enough. Prayer is powerful—but it is not a permission slip to ignore warning signs.
In this episode of The Lindsay Brown Show, we’re unpacking the hard truth many women wrestle with: you cannot spiritualize away poor character, repeated disrespect, or clear red flags and call it faith. Too often, we ignore red flags and cover them with prayer — hoping for change instead of honoring the truth.
We explore what spiritual bypassing looks like, why red flags are actually gifts from God, and how wisdom and prayer must walk hand in hand. God gives us discernment for a reason. And when something feels off, confusing, or draining, that’s not always a test—it’s often a warning.
🎙️ Here’s What We’re Unpacking:
- Why red flags are information, not spiritual attacks
- How women misuse prayer to override discernment
- Why red flags are not judgment, but wisdom
- God’s truth doesn’t hurt you — it protects you
If you’ve ever stayed in a situation because you “had hope,” this one’s for you.
