Summary
Leslie continues her Navigating Modern Christianity series with the second part of her message on Overcoming Mediocrity. While it's easy to point the finger at the apathy we see in the Church at large, God often wants change to begin within us. In this powerful episode, Leslie offers two practical ways to let God have his way in our lives, become an example of vibrant Christianity, and inspire others with the way we choose to live.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Leslie Wenny, host of the Set Apart podcast, biblical encouragement for women of all ages. |
| 0:14.5 | We're still in our navigating modern Christianity series and this is a two-part message on overcoming |
| 0:19.8 | mediocrity. A lot of these are things we've covered in other series but they fit |
| 0:24.2 | extremely well with looking around at modern Christianity the temptation to just |
| 0:29.9 | point the finger at other people rather than letting God shine the searchlight in our own soul. |
| 0:35.0 | And so I feel like this message of overcoming mediocrity is just so appropriate for talking |
| 0:41.0 | about where the modern church is at and sometimes we just feel so helpless. |
| 0:44.8 | What can we do to see spiritual fire ignited around us? |
| 0:48.8 | And usually the answer is letting God start with us. |
| 0:52.0 | So in the last episode, we talked about the principle |
| 0:55.1 | of putting Christ first and choosing radical devotion |
| 0:58.3 | to Jesus versus sliding into comfortable mediocrity, |

| 1:10.9 | but in reality we are meant to be building our lives |
| 1:14.6 | around Jesus Christ, not just fitting him in where it's convenient. And so I |
| 1:18.1 | want to build upon last week's message with some additional practicals on how |
| 1:22.1 | we can overcome mediocrity and step into that |
| 1:24.9 | vibrant life that God has called us to even if there's mediocrity all around us. |
| 1:29.8 | Before we jump in just a couple of things I wanted to remind you about. |
