The Gen Z Series: (24) Does God care about how I feel?
1w ago00:31:21Tap to summarizeWhat do you do with emotions like anxiety, anger, sadness, disappointment, or fear? Are emotions something Christians should suppress, something we should follow, or something we should surrender to God? In this episode, we’re talking honestly about emotions: where they come from, what they reveal, and how they fit into the Christian life. Because while emotions are real and God-given, they were also affected by the fall. That means our feelings can reveal what’s happening in our hearts, but they were never meant to become our authority. At the end of the day, emotions make wonderful servants but terrible masters. Your feelings are real, but they are not your authority… God is. If you’ve ever wondered, “Does God care how I feel?” or struggled to know what to do with difficult emotions, this conversation is for you.

Transcribe →The Gen Z Series: (22) How do I break habits that don’t honor God?
3w ago00:28:56Tap to summarizeWe all have habits, but not all of them are helping us follow Jesus. In this episode, we’re talking honestly about the habits that quietly shape our lives and how to break the ones that don’t honor God. If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t know when to say no,” you’re not alone. That tension is real, especially in a culture that normalizes distraction and blurs the line between what’s harmless and what’s actually pulling you away from God. So how do you know the difference between a bad habit and a sinful one? And more importantly, how do you change? If you’re ready to stop feeling stuck and start walking in victory, this episode is for you.

Transcribe →The Gen Z Series: (21) Which habits are essential in the Christian life?
Apr 2300:25:39Tap to summarizeEveryone talks about spiritual growth… but where do you even start? If you’re Gen Z (or just feel like one), you’ve probably thought: I want to build better habits… but I’m not sure which ones actually matter. In this episode, we’re breaking it down in a way that’s simple, practical, and rooted in Scripture. Because here’s the truth: Habits don’t save you, but they do position you for growth. We’ll look at how spiritual habits show up all throughout the Bible, and most importantly, we’ll talk about this: Spiritual habits aren’t about doing more; they’re about being with God. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to grow in your faith, this episode will help you take your next step.

Transcribe →The Gen Z Series: (20) Do my habits really matter?
Apr 1600:24:58Tap to summarizeAre habits overrated… or are they quietly shaping everything about your life? In this episode, we’re talking about something that doesn’t always feel spiritual but absolutely is: your habits. Because the truth is, you don’t become like Christ by accident. You become like Christ by what you consistently practice. From a Gen Z perspective, habits can feel restrictive, forced, or even unnecessary. But what if small, daily choices are actually forming the direction of your life more than you realize? So if you’ve ever struggled to stay consistent, felt stuck in cycles, or wondered if the “little things” really matter, this episode will help you see your habits in a whole new light. Because spiritual maturity isn’t built in a moment… it’s cultivated over time.

Transcribe →The Gen Z Series: (19) How to love people without letting them drain me
Apr 900:29:01Tap to summarize“I don’t know how to say no.” If that’s ever been you, you’re not alone. In this episode, we’re tackling one of the biggest struggles Gen Z faces: how to love people well without losing yourself in the process. Because following Jesus calls us to love deeply, but it doesn’t mean ignoring boundaries, carrying what isn’t ours, or living emotionally exhausted. So what does the Bible actually say about boundaries? How do you care for others without becoming drained? And when is it time to step back from a relationship that isn’t healthy? If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by people, unsure how to say no, or exhausted from always giving… this episode will help you find a healthier, more biblical way to love.

Transcribe →The Gen Z Series: (18) Is it wrong to have pre-marital sex?
Apr 200:28:42Tap to summarizeThis is one of the most common questions Gen Z is asking today: Does the Bible actually say sex before marriage is wrong? In this episode, we talk honestly about what Scripture says about sex, relationships, and God’s design. We explore how God is not against sex—He created it—but He designed it to flourish within marriage. We unpack passages like 1 Corinthians 7 and 1 Thessalonians to understand God’s heart for purity, commitment, and obedience. But this conversation isn’t just about rules—it’s about direction. Are we trying to get as close to sin as possible… or as close to God as possible? If you’ve struggled in this area, you’re not alone. There is grace. There is a fresh start. And there is a better way forward. So here’s the real question we leave you with: What do you want most—God’s pleasure or your own? -- Helpful resources: Lina Abujamra’s new book All Your Life Watch the conversation on YouTube here.

Transcribe →The Gen Z Series: (17) Why do I still feel lonely even though I have a lot of friends?
Mar 2600:28:20Tap to summarizeIn this episode, we talk about a tension so many are feeling but few are willing to admit—being constantly connected, yet deeply alone. From a Gen Z perspective, loneliness often hides behind busy social lives, group chats, and friendships that look full on the outside but feel shallow within. But what does the Bible say about loneliness? Is it something to fix, or something God wants to meet us in? If you’ve ever wondered why your friendships don’t fully satisfy, or what to do with the ache you can’t explain, this episode will help you reframe loneliness not as a failure, but as an invitation. A place where God meets you, not from a distance, but right in the middle of it. -- Helpful resources: Lina Abujamra’s new book All Your Life Watch the conversation on YouTube here Follow on IG @linaabujamra
Transcribe →The Gen Z Series: (16) Does God actually have a plan for my dating life?
Mar 1900:42:38Tap to summarizeDoes God actually have a plan for my dating life? And will I ever find true love? These are some of the most pressing questions Gen Z is asking right now, and in today’s episode, we dive right in. I’m joined by two Gen Z voices—one single and one in a serious relationship—as we have an honest conversation about dating, faith, and what really matters. Because the truth is: who you date will shape your faith, your future, and your direction. Dating is never neutral. Tune in for a conversation that will challenge the way you think about dating and point you back to what matters most.

Transcribe →The Gen Z Series: (15) Does God care who my friends are?
Mar 1200:25:43Tap to summarizeOne of the most common struggles Gen Z voices today is this: “I want godly friends, but I can’t find them.” In a culture where friendships are often shaped by convenience, social media, or shared interests, it can be hard to know what healthy, faith-shaping friendships actually look like. But does God really care who your friends are? In this episode, we explore what the Bible says about the influence of friendships and why the people you surround yourself with matter more than you might think. Scripture reminds us that our relationships quietly shape the direction of our lives over time. The people closest to us influence our character, our decisions, and even our faith. If you’ve ever wondered how to navigate friendships while staying rooted in Christ, this conversation will help you think more intentionally about the people walking alongside you.
