That "inspirational" phrase you keep seeing on Instagram might be leading you astray. In this thought-provoking episode, Cody and Caitlin examine what they call "bumper sticker theology" - those catchy, shallow spiritual sayings that sound good but lack biblical foundation.

The hosts dive deep into one of today's most popular mantras: "You are enough." While seemingly empowering, this message fundamentally contradicts scripture's teaching about our dependence on God. Through personal stories and biblical analysis, they explain why this self-focused worldview gives false comfort while robbing us of the true peace that comes from resting in Christ's sufficiency.

"When we believe we're enough on our own, we get stuck," Caitlin shares from her parenting struggles. "I'd try handling things myself, fail repeatedly, and end up in tears because I couldn't do it alone." This practical example illuminates why acknowledging our insufficiency actually opens the door to experiencing God's power.

The conversation tackles why these simplistic sayings gain traction, especially in our self-help culture, and offers a more biblical alternative: instead of "I am enough," embrace "God's grace is enough." This shift transforms our approach to challenges - seeking God first through prayer and Scripture, then taking action in His strength rather than our own.

Whether you've questioned these popular phrases or found yourself repeating them, this episode will challenge you to examine the theology behind the bumper stickers and rediscover the freedom that comes from dependence on Christ.
