What is the purpose of the Christian life?

In this episode of Mind and Faith Matters, we explore the foundation beneath spiritual growth and mental health: God is shaping us into people who reflect the character of Jesus. Rather than reducing faith to religious practices or self-improvement, we look at Scripture’s consistent message that the Christian life is a daily relationship with God that transforms us from the inside out. Through passages like Romans 8, Galatians 5, and John 15, we examine how sanctification unfolds in ordinary life and how the fruit of the Spirit develops as we remain connected to Christ.

We also explore the practical intersection of faith and mental health. Whether you are a committed Christian or simply curious about how faith relates to psychological well-being, this episode invites you to consider what God may be forming in you and how walking with Him shapes both your character and your mental health.
