Are You Living for Likes or for Christ? - Spiritually Fit Today

Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole. In this episode Arnie talks with Brad Davies (VP at Salem Media Group) about how online groupthink and digital pressure can shape Christian identity and push us to seek approval from people rather than from God. They reflect on Galatians 1:10—"Am I now seeking the approval of man or of God?"—and offer practical steps to cultivate authentic faith in a social-media world. 4 R Action Steps: - Read: Read Galatians 1:10 slowly. Notice words about approval, pleasing man, and serving Christ. - Reflect: Ask yourself: Where am I seeking approval? Do my public posts reflect my whole life or just five curated minutes? Am I motivated by likes or by obedience to Christ? - Respond: Pray briefly: "Heavenly Father, forgive us for chasing the approval of others. Give us courage to be authentic and to find our identity in You, not in likes or followers. Help us live to please You first. In Jesus’ name, Amen." - Reveal: Do one small act solely for God’s eyes today—post a verse that matters to you without commentary, spend private time in prayer, or honestly share with one person how you’re choosing authenticity over applause.
