For The Girl Who Needs Freedom From Half Heartedness Aug 21, 2026

Show notes

We halfheartedly go to the gym, work at our job, and even date someone… and we know the results! At the gym you don’t see any progress… at work you scroll for hours and your to-do list doesn’t get any shorter, the relationship doesn’t work out because you’re only in it with half of your heart. How often do we treat our relationship with God like that, too? What would it look like if you chose to wholeheartedly walk with Him day in and day out, outwardly and inwardly. Tune into this final episode of the season to get tangible ways to do just that - follow Jesus wholeheartedly!
