Why trying to fit in only makes you feel more alienated.

02/18/25 • 33 min

The world constantly pressures us to conform—to fit into its mold, follow its trends, and embrace its values. But does blending in really lead to belonging? In this episode, we explore why trying to fit in often leads to deeper alienation and emptiness. Instead of striving for acceptance on the world’s terms, we’ll discuss the freedom that comes from embracing who God created you to be. Join us as we uncover biblical truths about identity, purpose, and standing firm in faith—even when the world pushes back.
