In America we feel like we need to hustle harder, earn more, or finally "make it" That pressure isn’t peace, and it’s definitely not from God. In this episode, we’re talking about contentment: what it really means for Christians and how it kills the lies of comparison, envy, and spiritual apathy. I think I have to round out Season 2 here and take a break while I restructure Season 3 with set dates and topics. Bear with me as I grow and learn guys.

We admire courage, but why is it so rare today-especially among believers? In this episode of LV, I dig deep into why fear has overtaken our culture and how true courage isn't self-made-it's rooted in faith, humility, and hope in God.Lost Virtues blog post:https://nefreteri.com/do-not-be-afraid-the-lost-art-of-godly-courage/TikTok: Callin' them Out on TikTokCallin' them Out Instagram: Instagram (@callinthemoutpodcast)

Ahhh yes, the virtue we all jump to when we have disagreements. . . Not!! This episode we go over what Biblical forgiveness is compared to the world. And you betcha, we're gonna talk reconciliation.

In this episode, we’re breaking down HOPE, which lives between Despair and Gullibility. Christians must know that Jesus gives us hope in life to endure and, in death, salvation. We shouldn't get to caught up with speculation and getting too hopeful, that we fail to be vigilant, which may result in gullible actions.Lost Virtues blog post:https://nefreteri.com/finding-true-christian-hope-in-a-hopeless-world/TikTok: Callin' them Out on TikTokCallin' them Out Instagram: Instagram (@callinthemoutpodcast)

We’re breaking down Moderation (Temperance)—a virtue that keeps us from falling into the extremes of gluttony or excessive self-denial.

We'll round it out with practical tips to overcome it.Lost Virtues blog post:https://nefreteri.com/the-visible-but-silent-sin-of-gluttony/TikTok:Callin' them Out on TikTokInstagram: Instagram (@callinthemoutpodcast)

We hear a lot about pride as Christians, but don't recognize that insecurities and low self-esteem are the other side. Humility, one of the most beautiful—but most misunderstood—virtues in the world, sits right in the middle. It's what allows us to know exactly who we are as God's creation.Lost Virtues blog post:https://nefreteri.com/lost-virtues-truth-about-humility/TikTok: Callin' them Out on TikTokCallin' them Out Instagram: Instagram (@callinthemoutpodcast)

Envy is a silent killer in the Christian walk-it robs your joy, ruins relationships, and turns your heart bitter. The flipside and equally as bad is not thinking you're worthy of things people have. Can we overcome it? In this episode, I'll show you how kindness (brotherly love) is the key to defeating envy and why it's impossible to do it without God.

This is a more "theological episode" than cultural but super important. We're told to follow Jesus, but many don't understand sin, how to not be legalistic, but also not regularly sinning.

In this 2-part series, I’m tackling a topic pastors won’t preach on. I take you on a deep dive into beauty from God's perspective—beyond just human physicality. God designed beauty with purpose—from creation, art, music, and architecture to human appearance. But in our fallen world, beauty is often distorted, envied, or misused. When we STOP comparing ourselves and START seeing through God’s eyes, everything changes. *note- I add some visuals to the Youtube video, so the experience is better for this particular episodeCallin' them Out Show Notes:https://nefreteri.com/god-the-creator-of-art-and-beauty/TikTok: Callin' them Out on TikTokCallin' them Out Instagram: Instagram (@callinthemoutpodcast)

In this episode, we’re breaking down the deception behind manifestation and why it’s NOT the same as prayer. Some Christians now are trying to blend the two, thinking they can manifest their dreams while also trusting in God. We’ll dive into where manifestation really comes from, why so many people fall for it, and the real, legitimate power behind prayer—how done the right way—actually changes lives, ourselves and others.Callin' them Out Show Notes:https://nefreteri.com/manifesting-is-not-prayer/TikTok: Callin' them Out on TikTokCallin' them Out Instagram: Instagram (@callinthemoutpodcast)

Welcome back to Season 2!Season 1 got us warmed up by telling us who we are, created by God and made for a purpose.This episode we talk about the increasing habit of pulling away from others by self-isolating.Well when God made us, He said "It's not good for man to be alone." So we're gonna talk about what's going on in the culture, how to identify if you're isolating or practicing solitude, and what this means for people who identify as believers in Christ.Jam-packed with science, spirituality and theology; this is a powerful listen if you've been considering "protecting your inner peace."

Many people struggle with this question, believing that God is a harsh, judgmental figure responsible for the pain and suffering in the world. In this episode, we challenge that view with logical arguments, cultural examples, and biblical truth to uncover God’s true nature. We explore what it really means to see God as a benevolent Creator, how His character is revealed through creation (Romans 1:20), and why the problem often lies in our own resistance to His sovereignty.

In this episode, we’re breaking down the sneaky lie of conformity and how it creeps into our lives without us realizing it.Society tells us to be individuals, yet pressures us to act, think, and speak like everyone else. But there are ways to counter it.Christians must also avoid the danger of conforming to Christian culture in response. Show Notes on my website:Follow Jesus Not The Crowd
