Summary
Is God ignoring your spouse’s sin, or are you still living under the old law? Many believers are unknowingly governed by the law—trained to look for what is wrong, what is missing, and what is not being upheld. This mindset fuels hyper-vigilance, hyper-criticism, and hyper-legalism, leaving many feeling exhausted, anxious, and spiritually stuck.
In this episode, we unpack how the law blinds you from what God is resurrecting, how spiritual discernment is necessary to see beyond the surface, and why transformation in marriage requires stepping into the new covenant. Through scripture and practical insight, we challenge the mindset that keeps marriages in bondage and explore how to walk in the Spirit, not the letter of the law.
Scriptures referenced: 1 Corinthians 15:56-57, 2 Corinthians 3:14-18, Galatians 2:19, Romans 7:6, Romans 8:14-17, James 3:13-18, and more.

| 0:34.3 | So all of y'all gave real feedback after you listen to either one or both of the |

| 0:45.7 | even as a small part of the body of Christ to be a chosen instrument of hope and life in what he is |
