How Not to Trip and Fall in Your Christian Walk
from Taking Your Next Step In Following Jesus Christ · host Kyle Austin
In this episode we follow Asaph through a raw, honest moment of spiritual near-failure. He encountered jealousy, confusion, and the temptation to call it quits. As the Psalm unfolds, he compares himself to the prosperous wicked, spirals toward despair, and asks whether faith is even worth it. But it all turns around when he returns to what he knows is certain, the church, the community of believers, and the immutable character of God. The episode traces his steps back from irrational comparison to spiritual clarity—showing how perspective, fellowship, and the memory of God’s goodness can steady a wavering heart.
