We live in a culture obsessed with “becoming your best self.” But for the Christian woman, the goal isn’t self-improvement — it’s sanctification.   In this powerful, grace-filled episode, Ingrid shares how years of chasing devotionals, routines, and discipline left her exhausted and empty until God showed her the difference between trying to be better and being made new.   Through Scripture and real-life reflection, she unpacks what sanctification looks like in your health, motherhood, and mindset — and how to stop striving in your own strength so the Holy Spirit can do the transforming work only He can do.   Scriptures referenced: Galatians 2:20, Romans 7:18-19, Philippians 1:6, John 15:5, 1 Thessalonians 4:3, Ephesians 2:10, 2 Peter 1:3   🎧 Listen to S1:Ep53 — Sanctified, Not Self-Improved: Why Your Health Isn’t About “Becoming Better” on the Faith Over Fads Podcast.   💻 Grab the Healthy Holy Momlife Bundle — three biblical health courses + the Faith Over Fads devotional for $29.99 at HealthyHolyMomlife.com

We live in a world that loves to make everything look Christian — a verse on a T-shirt, a devotional quote in a caption, or a “faith-based” routine that’s all about performance, not obedience.   But God isn’t after decoration. He’s after devotion. In this convicting and hope-filled episode, Ingrid unpacks what it means to stop accessorizing your faith and start actually living it.   Through personal storytelling, biblical teaching, and reformed truth, she reminds us that the Christian life isn’t about striving — it’s about surrender.   You’ll learn how to: • Recognize the difference between surface faith and Spirit-led obedience • Rebuild your rhythms of health and motherhood on the foundation of Scripture • Find peace and purpose in surrender instead of control   Scripture referenced: Luke 9:23, Romans 12:2, Philippians 2:13, Matthew 15:8, James 1:22, Philippians 4:6–7, 2 Corinthians 3:18, Galatians 2:20   🎧 Mentioned in this episode: The Healthy Holy Momlife Bundle — 3 of Ingrid’s most popular biblical health courses + a free Faith Over Fads devotional for just $29.99.
