How Social Media is Sabotaging Your Self-Worth and Stealing Your Purpose

In her podcast episode "Distractions," Cayla Craft delves into the importance of guarding oneself against harmful influences that divert focus from God’s purpose. She describes distractions as traps that steal identity, leading people away from their true path. Social media comparisons and fear, she explains, are common distractions that fuel feelings of inadequacy and inhibit spiritual growth. Cayla emphasizes the power of prayer and the support of a strong community to combat these mental strongholds. She warns against idolizing anything above God, such as money or security, as this can shift priorities away from faith. Ultimately, Cayla urges listeners to embrace their true identity in God, reject worldly distractions, and walk confidently in their divine purpose.
