588 // What if Community Is God’s Secret Weapon Against the Enemy? (Bible Study and Devotional)
Description
Hey Sis! 🎙️
Today’s episode is a reminder that while God calls us into love, community, and encouragement, we cannot forget that we are also in the middle of a very real spiritual battle. We open with a reflection on Hebrews 10:23 –25, where we are challenged to hold fast to our hope, to intentionally consider how we can spur one another on toward love and good works, and to remain faithful in community as we wait for Christ’s return. It’s a call to action—not just to believe, but to live out our faith in tangible ways that impact others.
From there, we step into Day 3 of Jennie Allen’s devotional Find Your People with the theme “We Are at War.” If God’s desire is for us to walk in deep, loving, intimate connection, then of course the enemy will try to divide us, isolate us, and keep us distracted from the real battle. Today we’ll uncover the truth of the enemy’s schemes, the necessity of spiritual armor, and the power of rallying together in prayer and community.
If you’ve ever wondered why conflict feels unending or why connection can be so hard to maintain, this conversation will remind you: we are not fighting flesh and blood, and we don’t have to fight alone.
