🎙️ EPISODE 9: “The Struggle is Real: Living Out Your Faith in 2025” How to stay grounded in faith when everything feels urgent, digital, and exhausting.

This week, we’re tackling what it means to walk with God when your calendar is chaotic, your group chat is on fire, and your spirit feels worn thin. Dr. Malesia Britt, Dr. Daniel Britt, and Brittany Armstrong get real about what it means to follow Jesus in an always-on, hustle-driven, scroll-heavy culture.

We ask: 📲 How do we protect our peace in a world that never turns off? 🛑 What does it look like to set holy boundaries when everything feels like a priority? 🕊️ Can rest be resistance—and worship? 💻 Where is God in the mundane: the dishes, the emails, the commutes?

📖 Scripture Anchor: Romans 12:2 “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…”
