👀 “The Church Turned Away a STARVING BABY?!” and the internet LOST it. Let’s talk about it… In today’s episode, we dive into the viral TikTok social experiment where a creator posed as a mother in need of baby formula and the responses from religious institutions across the U.S. and U.K. shocked millions. Some said “yes”… But many said “no.” And the world has questions. Was this an attack on the church? Or a wake-up call the Body of Christ needed? Let’s get into the reactions, the backlash, and what Scripture says about wolves in sheep’s clothing, discernment, and the responsibility believers have toward the vulnerable. What We Cover in S2:E4 ✔ The viral social experiment explained ✔ Why many churches said “no” ✔ Why some mosques and temples said “yes” ✔ Biblical discernment and identifying “wolves in sheep’s clothing” ✔ Why actions of believers affect how the world sees Christ ✔ Two key takeaways for Christians today Scriptures Mentioned 🕊️ Matthew 7:16 — “By their fruit you shall know them.” John 10:27 Matthew 25:35–40 Matthew 7:21 2 Corinthians 5:10 Reflection Questions 💬 What would you tell someone whose faith was shaken after seeing this experiment? 💬 Have we lowered the bar so much that even basic compassion shocks us? 💬 Are our actions drawing people toward Christ — or pushing them away?

“Show me your friends, and I’ll tell you who you are” — if you’re like me, you’re TIRED of hearing it. But is it really biblical truth or just our parents’ pre-assumptions? In this episode of Simply Grace, we’re breaking down one of the most overused (and misunderstood) phrases in Christian circles 🗣️ At first, I couldn’t stand hearing it, but through spiritual growth, divine revelation, and a few tough lessons, I’ve learned that there’s more truth than I wanted to admit. We’ll unpack what it really means to walk in alignment, recognize Kingdom relationships, and properly classify the people around us, because not everyone we hang with is meant to walk with us. This isn’t about judgment or perfection, it’s about discernment, purpose, and grace. 🌱 💭 Reflection Questions (Alignment Section) Ask yourself: 1. Do we share the same views, beliefs, and values? 2. Can our friendship exist in multiple spaces (church, work, social life)? 3. Are we able to have conversations that go beyond surface-level topics? 4. How do we show up to support one another? 5. What are our goals and purposes — and do they align? Because as Amos 3:3 reminds us: “Can two walk together unless they agree?” 🕊️ Whether you’re navigating a season of separation, reevaluating your circle, or praying for Kingdom-aligned friendships, this episode is a must-listen. ✨ Mentioned in this episode: 📖 Scripture: Amos 3:3, Proverbs 18:24, Philippians 4:19 💡 Topic Highlights: Alignment, Kingdom Relationships, Titles & Friendship, Seasons of Separation 🎧 Episode Title: S2E3 — “Show Me Your Friends & I’ll Tell You Who You Are | Facts or Fiction?

Talking faith, fashion, and modesty, but not like you’ve heard it before 👀 Because honestly, your capri’s are considered immodest to someone too... Wait! Don’t scroll! I know with this topic it’s easy to cast judgment or jump to conclusions, but just hear me out before forming an opinion. New season, new weather, new outfits — and apparently, new debates about what’s “too much” or “not enough.” This isn’t your typical modesty talk. It’s not a “cover up or go to hell” type of thing, and it’s definitely not a fashion police episode. It’s a real, by-youth-for-youth conversation about how we balance faith, personal style, and the ever-changing “rules” of what’s considered decent. From 1 Corinthians 6:19 to personal convictions and cultural differences, we’re unpacking what modesty really means, beyond the hemlines and headlines. Because truth is, modesty is a journey, not a competition. So before you scroll past, grab a snack, open your mind, and let’s talk: 💭 Is modesty really one-size-fits-all? 👗 Can personal conviction look different for everyone? 🙏🏽 And how do we honour God without losing our individuality? 🎶 Song inspiration: “Make Me Over” by ‪@bribabineaux 📖 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6:19 ✨ Mentioned in this episode: Personal conviction & the Holy Spirit’s role in guiding modesty Cultural differences in defining “decency” Why grace is better than judgment in our faith journeys How fashion can still glorify God 🌐 Visit our website: https://www.simplygrace.online 🗣️ Let’s talk: Do you think modesty is personal or universal? Comment below — I’d love to hear your take. 👇🏽 Drop your thoughts in the comments — all perspectives are welcome!

Welcome back to Simply Grace! In this heartfelt episode, we’re diving into a conversation about fleeting pleasures and momentary gain — those costly exchanges we sometimes make, trading our purpose and position with God for temporary satisfaction. Through biblical examples like Esau, the prodigal son, and Moses, we reflect on the importance of guarding our choices and prioritizing lasting purpose over passing desires. I’m also sharing life updates (I graduated again! 🎓) and how this topic found me when I wasn’t even looking for it. It’s a message for anyone battling peer pressure, temptation, or the weight of worldly expectations. Let’s talk about choosing conviction over convenience, and why it’s okay to be “selfish” with your purpose. Song inspiration: “Like a Tree” by @Jaymikee 🌿 Scripture references: Genesis 25 & 27, Hebrews 11:24-25, 2 Chronicles 7:14, Galatians 6:7-8 & more. 👉 Listen in, reflect deeply, and let’s grow together. #FaithTalk #SimplyGracePodcast #ChristianPodcast #PurposeOverPleasure

What’s your first instinct when you’re about to enter a room full of people, and you have a very noticeable scar? Do you hide it? Hide yourself? Or wear it like the mark of a battle you survived? In this episode of Simply Grace, we’re getting real about the stories behind our scars — both the ones people can see and the ones only we know about. Inspired by Genesis 32:22-32, we’re discussing how Jacob’s limp became a symbol of his victory, and how our own scars can be evidence of God’s goodness and faithfulness in our lives. We’ll talk about Jesus’ nail-pierced hands, the woman with the issue of blood, and those invisible battles no one claps for but God carries us through. I even share a little throwback to something I wrote during lockdown that changed my whole perspective on struggles and survival. Today’s Song Inspirations: ✨ Jacob’s Song by @bribabineaux — for when you’re in the thick of it ✨Victory Dance by @petersonokopi — for when you’ve made it to the other side Join the conversation: What scar (visible or invisible) reminds you of a battle you fought and won?

We’ve all had those “ah ha” moments where our parents warned us about the company we keep… and then somewhere down the line, we saw those cautioning words play out in real time. In this episode of Simply Grace, we’re diving into the importance of Godly counsel, spiritual discernment, and choosing the right people to keep in your corner, finding the Jonathan to our David. From the loyal bond between David and Jonathan, to stories of poor advice like Jonadab’s counsel to Amnon, we’ll explore how the people around us can either nurture our faith or quietly steer us off course. We’re also highlighting biblical examples like: ✨ Mordecai’s wisdom to Esther ✨ Jethro’s advice to Moses ✨ Job’s friends who missed the mark It’s a real conversation about spiritual discernment, protecting your peace, and moving with wisdom when it comes to your inner circle. The Song Inspiration for this episode is “You I Live For” by @MosesBliss And it acts as a reminder that no matter what comes our way, we live above the systems of this world and must stand firmly on God’s word.
