The Decline of the Church, Humility, and the Hollowing of Awe

In this episode of The Empowering Humility Podcast, host Giancarlo Newsome is joined by Tom Ish, publisher of Creation Illustrated, and executive coach and army chaplain Dr. Bryan Hedrick for an honest conversation about humility, awe, and the changing face of faith communities. Together, they examine the decline of humility and awe in both society and the church, unpacking the dangers of narcissism, nihilism, and shallow virtue signaling. With personal stories, surprising data, and practical wisdom, this episode challenges listeners to rethink how humility, gratitude, and genuine service can restore meaning and connection in our lives. Tune in for an engaging discussion that blends spiritual insight, real-world experience, and a call to rediscover what truly anchors flourishing communities.
