Christians & Flex Culture?! Patterns of Truth Podcast
-
- Christianity
We can easily say that Christians shouldn’t boast about material wealth or career advantages we might gain in this life. But we have all done it in some way and our current culture encourages “flex culture” in the name of networking, casual conversation, and celebrating yourself.
What is Flex Culture?
Flex Culture is when someone shows off their wealth, socioeconomic status, or educational level to others – namely, on social media.
Roy and Peter join our host Patricia and together they answer the following questions and more:
* What does it mean to be “addicted to influence?”
* How can we differentiate between ambition and chasing after worldly pleasures?
* How do we overcome the comparison trap?
* What practical steps can we take to respond when we’re faced with the temptation to compare ourselves to others?
Thank you for listening to another Patterns of Truth Podcast. As always, our compass for this discussion is the Bible. Our mission is to uncover the truth about our Christian journey and discover the patterns that shape our lives before God. Remember, the Enemy doesn’t take a day off from trying to distract us, but the Lord reminds us to stay anchored in the unchanging truths of the Bible.
