In this episode of Faith Is a Journey, we talk about the story of Lot’s wife and why her story still matters today.

Was her sin really just “looking back,” or was something deeper going on?

We explore how fear, comfort, anxiety, grief, nostalgia, and attachment to the past can keep us spiritually stuck. From Jesus saying “Remember Lot’s wife” in Luke 17 to our own struggles with loss, pressure, control, and learning to trust God, this became one of the most personal conversations we’ve had.

This isn’t a polished theology lecture. It’s a real kitchen-table conversation about scripture, life, and what it means to let go and move forward in faith.

Topics we discuss:

• The story of Lot and Lot’s wife
• Why people struggle to let go
• Fear of the unknown
• Trusting God during uncertainty
• Anxiety and control
• Grief and moving forward
• What Jesus meant by “Remember Lot’s wife”
• How the past can keep us spiritually stuck

“And don’t look back.”

Most Christians know about the Armor of God from Ephesians 6. But what does it actually mean to “put it on” daily?

In this episode, we sit down for an honest kitchen-table conversation about spiritual warfare, distraction, anxiety, drift, and the unseen battles that can quietly pull people away from God.

We talk about: • What “not flesh and blood” really means • Why spiritual warfare is usually more subtle than people think • Breaking down each piece of the Armor of God • Why truth, peace, faith, and scripture matter daily • How success, comfort, and distraction can slowly pull us away from dependence on God • Why staying spiritually grounded requires daily discipline

This is not a fear-driven conversation about demons behind every problem. It’s a real discussion about staying close to Christ in a world full of noise, distraction, and spiritual drift.

Ephesians 6 reminds us that the battle is real, but so is the victory already won in Christ.

Some of the deepest wounds in life don’t come from what happened to us.

They come from what never happened at all.

The conversations we never had. The approval we never received. The comfort, encouragement, or guidance we spent years wishing for.

In this episode of Faith Is a Journey, we reflect on grief, parenting, childhood memories, and the empty places many of us still carry long into adulthood.

But what if those gaps weren’t accidents?

What if the things our parents never gave us were the very things that pushed us toward God?

We talk honestly about:

• chasing approval
• success that still feels empty
• learning to stop blaming the past
• why discomfort often deepens faith
• and how God fills the places people never could

This is one of our most personal conversations yet, including an original song called “Hold On” inspired by a childhood memory and the realization that the hand we were meant to reach for was never just our parents’… but His.

If you’ve ever struggled with loss, regret, unmet expectations, or wondering why certain voids exist in your life, this episode is for you.
