Love from the center of who you are. Don't fake it. Run for dear life from evil. Hold on for dear life to good... Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord."
Romans 12:9-12
Have you ever looked back at your younger self and realised you were more passionate about Jesus than you are today?
In today's episode of Everyday Joy, Ash and Shaylee unpack Romans 12 and reflect on what it means to have genuine faith, authentic love, and a passion for God that doesn't fade with time.
Together, they wrestle with a challenging question: have we become complacent? From sharing their faith with strangers and boldly talking about Jesus, to navigating the realities of adulthood, responsibilities, and busy seasons, they explore how easy it is to lose the zeal we once had and settle into comfortable Christianity.
This conversation is a powerful reminder that our relationship with God doesn't grow accidentally. Just as a gardener prunes a plant so it can become more fruitful, we need to regularly examine our lives and ask: what needs to be cut back so that my faith can flourish again?
If you've felt spiritually tired, less passionate than you once were, or aware that God is calling you deeper, this episode will encourage you to reflect, reset, and rediscover the joy of living wholeheartedly for Christ.
