In this episode, Brooke and Caroline delve deep beyond the surface of our understanding of faith. They explore what it truly means to have faith that goes beyond routine and outward appearances, uncovering the often-underrated truths that hold immense power to transform our lives in profound and unseen ways. Get ready to have your perspective shifted as they discuss the heart of faith and its practical implications.  We explore what it truly means to have faith beyond routine, appearances, and preconceived notions. Discover the unseen truths that have the power to transform our lives.  In this Episode: What faith truly is (it's more than just belief!). The power of community and relationships in our faith journey. Why biblical encouragement is so vital, yet often overlooked. Practical ways to encourage others in your life. How to cultivate a deeper awareness of encouragement in your faith. The importance of abiding in Christ (John 15) for a thriving faith. How our culture's focus on "self" contrasts with the Bible's emphasis on "one another". Quotes from the Episode: “Faith is more than a belief. It is trust. It is surrender, and it's a willingness to go deeper.” “The culture is screaming, independence. Self, self, self... And I think the Bible's just so different than that. I think the Bible preaches a whole different message of truly living and knowing and bearing burdens with people.”“Thinking outside yourself is a way to push back against that [culture of independence] in a huge way.” “Scripture's calling us to just care and not, not be independent, but to be dependent on God and and caring about one another.” Scripture references: Ephesians 4:29 Hebrews 10:24-25 John 15 Connect with Brooke!
