Summary
In this episode, Aaron McManus and Erwin Raphael McManus sit down to reflect on their recent Mosaic gathering in New York and the upcoming launch of the Ghost Artifacts collection, developed with Arturo and Jess in Brooklyn. Diving into the journey of new believers, they share guidance on first steps after deciding to follow Jesus—like sharing your faith immediately, reading the Bible starting with John, praying throughout the day, and inviting God into your daily life. Erwin highlights how physical expressions like raising hands, kneeling, and baptism serve as outward symbols of inward transformation, stressing the importance of finding a church community that shapes you toward the life you want to live. They reflect on personal stories of declaring faith, the pitfalls of self-righteous communities, and the need to continually recommit to a vibrant relationship with Jesus at every stage of life. They close with encouragement to join the Mind Shift community, share the podcast, and look ahead to future episodes featuring a wider range of guests and themes.
