About this episode
The episode discusses how small duties reflect our true character and explores themes of trust, responsibility, and righteousness in a Christian context.
Trust isn’t built by big speeches. It’s built by what we do with the small stuff. We open with Jesus’ words in Luke 16 and follow the thread all the way through: if we’re faithful in little things, we can be trusted with greater responsibility, but if we cut corners in quiet ways, the cracks eventually show up at home, at work, and in our spiritual life. We talk Christian stewardship and money, the danger of serving two masters, and why “looking righteous” is not the same as being righteous....
