Have you ever wondered if that "gut feeling" is your intuition speaking, or if it's actually the Holy Spirit?
This week, Alana and Jaime dive into an honest and thought-provoking conversation on how to tell the difference between human intuition and Holy Spirit discernment—and why confusing the two can actually be dangerous.
In this episode, Alana and Jaime tackle the all-too-common Christian habit of "over-spiritualizing" our personal choices. They unpack the spiritual danger of using the phrase "God told me" to justify our own desires, make excuses for being flaky, or shut down disagreements. They explain why making God the "fall guy" for our decisions or personality quirks can border on taking His name in vain, and why it's okay to just want things without putting a divine stamp on them!
Jaime also shares the personal story of her family's move to Alaska, revealing how she used scripture to seek confirmation when she wasn't sure if the decision was driven by a personal desire or a divine calling. Together, they explore the beautiful truth that intuition is a God-given gift designed to protect and guide us, and why honoring your gut instincts (like sensing an unsafe situation) doesn't have to conflict with your faith.
Come listen and you’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on the incredible freedom we have in Christ, a reminder of God's joyful and loving character, and practical wisdom on how to seek clarity when you aren't sure whose voice you're hearing.
