Have you ever heard the phrase, “being in the world, but not of the world”? While this phrase is common in Christian circles, some of us may not truly understand what it means. On this podcast, Krystal and Shelby examine the meaning of being in the world but not of the world according to Scripture. And they offer practical wisdom on engaging in secular activities for the sake of the gospel. Join us today to discover what it truly means to live in the world as a Christ-follower.
