S2 E150: Have We Lost the Ability to Blush?
from Unpolished but Called · host Kathrin Shaffer
Have we become so familiar with sin that we've stopped noticing it?In Jeremiah 6, God wasn't simply addressing the sins of His people—He was revealing something even more concerning. Their hearts had become so desensitized that they were no longer ashamed. Jeremiah says they "couldn't even blush."In this episode of Unpolished but Called, we explore how constant exposure can slowly reshape our sensitivity, how a conscience becomes numb over time, and why maintaining a tender heart before God is one of the greatest blessings a believer can have.This isn't a conversation about condemning the world. It's an invitation to examine our own hearts and ask whether we're still listening when God speaks.In this episode:• What Jeremiah meant by "they could not blush"• How exposure changes our sensitivity• Spiritual adaptation and conformity• The danger of a hardened heart• Why conviction is evidence of spiritual life• David's response to correction• Keeping a tender heart before God📖 Scriptures• Jeremiah 6:13–15• Romans 12:2• Proverbs 28:13• John 16:8• Psalm 51:10• Ezekiel 36:26🌐 Website & FREE Devotionalhttps://kathrinshaffer.com📚 Following Jesus (Without Feeling Lost)Get 15% off the digital Bible study workbook through my website for a limited time.🔗 Linktreehttps://linktr.ee/unpolishedbutcalledIf you're looking for more than podcast episodes, I also send a weekly email called Walking It Out with Kathrin, where I share biblical reflections, encouragement, and what God has been teaching me throughout the week.If this conversation encouraged you, consider subscribing so we can continue growing together as we follow Jesus one conversation at a time.
