529 // Filtering Out the Good? A Bible-Based Reminder to Fix Your Faith Focus (Bible Study and Devotional)

Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode is a powerful reminder that God—not people—is the ultimate judge of our hearts and motives. We’re digging into 1 Corinthians 4:2–5 and uncovering how Paul models a confidence rooted in Christ and a humility that acknowledges God's final say. If you’ve ever wrestled with feeling misunderstood or judged by others—or even yourself—this passage reminds us to shift our focus to faithfulness over people-pleasing, and God’s timing over our own.

We’re also continuing in Day 6 of our devotional series, Don’t Believe Everything You Think, with a deep dive into Negative Filtering. This distortion can leave us stuck in defeat even when there’s goodness all around us. Whether it’s parenting, marriage, work, or your walk with God—this episode will help you notice the moments you might be overlooking, and encourage you to reframe your perspective through truth, gratitude, and grace.

If your heart has been weighed down by criticism, comparison, or constant self-doubt, this episode is for you. Let’s release the weight of judgment and lean into the freedom of living for God's approval.
