from Revelation Within On the Go! · host Heidi Bylsma-Epperson and Christina Motley

Send us Fan MailIn Part 2 of our three-part series The Real Thing, we talk about the "almosts"—those things we turn to for comfort that feel close to peace but never quite satisfy. Whether it’s late-night snacks, comparison, or performance, we’ve both reached for substitutes that ultimately leave us thirsty. Drawing from Jeremiah 2:13 and Isaiah 44, we unpack the imagery of broken cisterns and burned-out ashes, asking: Why do we keep trying to feed on what no longer gives life?This conversation isn’t just about recognizing what’s not working—it’s about learning to receive what is. We share stories from our own lives and invite you into a reflective process using breath prayers and simple journaling prompts. What are the places in your life that feel like “almosts”? What would it look like to trade those in for the living water Jesus offers? Join us on this honest journey towards something real—because you weren’t made to settle for almost.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org
