Spiritual Bypassing (Part 1) - Lo-fi Faith

What this episode covers

In part one of this conversation, James and Mike discuss the idea of spiritual bypassing—when Christian language is used as a means of avoiding responsibility and action. Phrases like “I’ll pray about it” or “God’s in control” can sound deeply spiritual...but sometimes they function as a way of stepping back from hard decisions, uncomfortable emotions, or the work we’re actually being invited to do.
