#9 - Are You Wearing a Spiritual Schmedium? (with Pastor Austin Young)

In this episode of The Extra Mile Podcast, Pastor Steve and Pastor Austin unpack the idea that following Jesus is a lot like cleaning out your closet. Through the story of Samuel and the metaphor of clothing throughout Scripture, they explore how spiritual growth often requires letting go of old habits, old mindsets, and old versions of ourselves that no longer fit who God is calling us to be.The conversation dives into the difference between spiritual identity and spiritual maturity, why many believers stagnate in their growth, and what it looks like to “grow out” of old lifestyles as we mature in Christ. Along the way, they discuss the importance of godly community, spiritual disciplines, and having people in your life willing to lovingly point out the “spiritual schmediums” you may still be holding onto.Watch the full sermon here.
