It sounds spiritual, but it’s not new and it’s not harmless.Christians are chasing “special knowledge” instead of standing on God’s Word and it’s leading to confusion and division inside the Church.Pastor Gary Hamrick joins me to talk about why this is happening and how to stay anchored in truth when everything else feels loud and convincing.Show mentions: http://heidistjohn.com/mentionsWebsite | heidistjohn.comSupport the show! | donorbox.org/donation-827Rumble | rumble.com/user/HeidiStJohnYoutube | youtube.com/@HeidiStJohnPodcastInstagram | @‌heidistjohnFacebook | Heidi St. JohnX | @‌heidistjohnFaith That Speaks Online CommunitySubmit your questions for Fan Mail Friday | heidistjohn.com/fanmailfriday

We’re not skirting the hard stuff today. From living with a spouse who won’t get help, to raising kids in a culture that feeds anxiety and confusion, to dealing with hurt inside the church, these are the real questions you’re asking.But before we get to them, we need to talk about something bigger: the slow drift away from truth, even inside the church. When everything becomes “discernment” and everyone claims special insight, we stop thinking clearly and start dividing over things that shouldn’t divide us.We’re going to get grounded again. Truth matters. Your family matters. And how you live this out right now matters more than ever.Show mentions: http://heidistjohn.com/mentionsWebsite | heidistjohn.comSupport the show! | donorbox.org/donation-827Rumble | rumble.com/user/HeidiStJohnYoutube | youtube.com/@HeidiStJohnPodcastInstagram | @‌heidistjohnFacebook | Heidi St. JohnX | @‌heidistjohnFaith That Speaks Online CommunitySubmit your questions for Fan Mail Friday | heidistjohn.com/fanmailfriday

We’re watching truth get twisted in real time and too many Christians are going along with it. From global conflict to cultural confusion, this isn’t just noise… it’s a spiritual battle. Today, I’m talking about why truth still matters, why “your truth” is a lie, and how we anchor ourselves in God’s Word when everything around us is shifting.If we don’t stand for truth, we will fall for anything.

In the middle of fear and pressure, many women are told they don’t have real support or real choices. That’s simply not true.Today I’m talking about the option almost no one brings up and why adoption has quietly disappeared from the conversation. This is about truth, compassion, and showing women a path forward that honors life.Show mentions: http://heidistjohn.com/mentionsWebsite | heidistjohn.comSupport the show! | donorbox.org/donation-827Rumble | rumble.com/user/HeidiStJohnYoutube | youtube.com/@HeidiStJohnPodcastInstagram | @‌heidistjohnFacebook | Heidi St. JohnX | @‌heidistjohnFaith That Speaks Online CommunitySubmit your questions for Fan Mail Friday | heidistjohn.com/fanmailfriday
