Truth / Illusion

In this episode of “Faith in the Wild,” Angelica and Nicole continue their Faith in Action theme after last week’s “Faith Over Fear,” focusing on “Truth over Illusion.” They define truth as reality revealed by God and illusion as deceptive, misleading false beliefs, discussing both external illusions (culture, social media, comparison) and internal ones (self-doubt, reactive emotions, and the “lies” we tell ourselves). Nicole shares how discouragement and fear surface while starting a new business, and how surrender, prayer, Scripture, and staying intentional help her keep moving forward. They emphasize discernment through pausing, reducing “noise,” practicing grace and self-care, and speaking truth over yourself. Nicole and Angelica invite listeners to identify a personal falsehood and replace it with God’s truth using the Bible or the Bible app.00:00 Welcome Back01:16 Theme Truth Over Illusion04:10 Defining Truth And Illusion06:20 Internal Versus External Illusions09:07 Instagram Versus Reality11:30 Entrepreneur Doubt And Surrender19:30 Truth Is God Alone21:56 Daily Practices And Social Noise23:47 Discernment In Practice25:36 Pause Before Reacting27:05 Faith Over Fear Training28:29 Building Business On Truth32:50 Noise Distractions And Focus35:52 Music And Holy Spirit37:06 Grace Self-Care Alignment39:30 Speak Truth Over Yourself40:44 Listener Challenge Name Falsehoods41:42 Bible App And Next Episode43:46 Closing Blessing And Farewell|| JOIN THE COMMUNITY ||> Subscribe and Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and YouTube> Purchase our “Faith Over Fear 11-week Devotional & Reflection Guide” on Amazon> Follow our journey on Instagram: ⁠@FaithInTheWildPodcast⁠> Visit our website: ⁠FaithInTheWildPodcast.com⁠|| ABOUT FAITH IN THE WILD PODCAST ||> Hosted by: ⁠Nicole Moran⁠ and ⁠Angelica McCarthy⁠> Music: “⁠Dialed In” by Afro Bop Alliance Big Band⁠ (comp. ⁠Luis Hernandez⁠, arr.
