Mar 1600:52:30Tap to summarizeIn this episode of the Kingdom Misfits Podcast, hosts David and Michael explain that spiritual and social isolation leaves believers vulnerable to the enemy, much like predators targeting an animal separated from its herd. They note that Christians often drift away from their church family due to internal struggles like shame, past "church hurt," burnout from over-serving, or a reliance on artificial digital connections. To break this dangerous cycle, the hosts encourage listeners to "abide in the vine" by staying rooted in God's word and to intentionally re-engage with their community through practical steps like making small connections and serving others.Connect with us:Facebook @KingdomMisfitsemail us at kingdommisfitsco@gmail.comMusic in the episode is brought to you by Epidemic Sound and UppBeat.io

Finally, we explore a healthy, biblical view of sex, recognizing it as a beautiful gift from God designed for two primary purposes: intimate connection within the bond of marriage and the procreation of the human race.Join us as we uncover the truth about God's good design for relationships, sexuality, and intimacy, preparing our hearts for Part 2, where we will address how this design has been distorted and the biblical warnings against sexual sin.Connect with us:Facebook @KingdomMisfitsemail us at kingdommisfitsco@gmail.comMusic in the episode is brought to you by Epidemic Sound and UppBeat.io
