About this episode
This episode is one of the most honest ones I’ve shared. Over the past month, I’ve felt the weight of the Lord’s discipline, and not in a way that pushed me away, but in a way that pulled me back to truth.
I was in a rut. I was complaining, easily offended, and frustrated with God,but what He showed me was deeper than my emotions. He showed me that I had stopped guarding my heart (Proverbs 4:23), and because of that, pride, bitterness, and cynicism were sneaking in quietly.
In this episode, I’m talking about what it really looks like to guard your heart not just from toxic people or outside voices, but from your own thoughts, offense, and the lies that subtly disconnect you from God.
This isn’t just about discipline - it’s about intimacy. It’s about letting God confront what’s trying to corrupt you and choosing closeness with Him over comfort.
If you’ve been feeling dry, defensive, or distant from God - this one’s for you.
