Fan Mail Friday: Burnout, Doubt, and Standing Firm

It’s Fan Mail Friday, and today we’re answering honest questions from listeners who are feeling the weight of life and culture. From spiritual burnout and church hurt to parenting, finances, fear, and dry seasons of prayer, this episode speaks to the moments when faith feels heavy—but God is still at work. We’ll talk about conviction versus condemnation, trusting the Lord in uncertain times, teaching kids discernment without cynicism, and why laughter can actually be part of spiritual warfare. If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I the only one struggling like this?”—you’re not. Stick around. You’ll be encouraged.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.
