In this Q&A episode of Full Fledged, JC and Priscilla Shirer answer honest questions about gossip, the Church, and the subtle ways believers can try to manipulate God. They discuss what Scripture says about gossip, why it can be so destructive within the body of Christ, and how to guard against it. They also unpack the misconception that acting "holy," performing religious works, or checking spiritual boxes can somehow earn God's favor or persuade Him to give us what we want. Through biblical teaching and practical wisdom, this episode challenges listeners to move beyond performance-driven faith and pursue a genuine relationship with Christ rooted in trust, obedience, and grace.Learn more about your ad choices.
