In this real-time conversation, we talk honestly about why “going with the flow” often leads to missed deadlines, strained marriages, and quiet frustration — even when you’re working hard and trying to do the right thing. This episode isn’t about hustle or effort. It’s about strategy, integrity, and stewardship of time — in work, marriage, parenting, and spiritual life.

What do you do when you feel like you’ve blown it spiritually? When guilt won’t let go and you’re tempted to prove yourself instead of trusting grace? In this episode, we talk honestly about guilt, conviction, and accusation—and why your first move after failure isn’t to try harder, but to go back to the cross. Drawing from The Discipline of Grace by Jerry Bridges, we unpack the difference between life-giving conviction and soul-crushing guilt, the trap of performance-based Christianity, and how the gospel isn’t just how you start the Christian life—it’s how you live it.

In this episode, we unpack simmering anger — the quiet, justified, under-the-surface anger that shows up as sarcasm, silence, withdrawal, cold tones, apathy, and emotional distance. The kind of anger that often does more damage than explosive outbursts.
