When Faith Hurts: Singing Loud, Breaking Quiet, Living Silent

Send us a text“I am learning more and more about how to appreciate the noise around me, while finding ways to engage it, effectively. Perfection is NOT my goal, Wholeness is.”~Mentally-speaking, I'm talking about image-based coping — when a person relies on outward performance, appearance, or status symbols to mask internal distress. Research shows that this often intensifies anxiety, depression, and feelings of isolation. ~For church folks, a familiar look resembles singing loud but hurting quiet. For nonbelievers, it looks like flexing the body, the house, the car — looking perfect on the outside while crumbling on the inside. Let’s be real, it’s not about looking holy, snatched, or chest-fabulous! It’s not about the trends. It’s about being real. It’s about getting whole. ~We’ve gotta stop performing faith that looks cute on Sunday but falls apart by Monday. We need faith that actually works for us — the kind that steadies us when life shakes, heals instead of hides. Because at the end of the day, and this thought; the only faith that really matters isn’t the kind that makes us look good… it’s the kind that makes us whole...
