#52 In our social media saturated world, how often are we seduced by well marketed products that press our buttons, make us feel inadequate, or rely on stoking our fears and insecurities to keep us hooked and buying what they're selling?

How much have we lost the ability to look beyond the snazzy posts or the words that resonate, to consider the substance of what lies beneath and whether it is as 'glittery' as first appears?

As a Christian who hears the same messages promising 'great wealth' from Christian enterpreneurs  if I trust God, this 'glitter' looks an awful lot like what the rest of the world tells me is success, and I got to wondering whether that really is what God deems success from life? This episode dives into a little of my wrangling on this topic of discerning the 'fruit' of what may appear at first glance to be positive, when in reality it is downright toxic and more hellish than heavenly.

I hope it helps you too and inspires you to also question whether the substance matches the marketing.

*Side note: at one point, when I'm talking about someone with a sketchy past, I also refer to it as 'SHADY'. I realise that with my accent it may sound like I swore but I didn't, it was just my accent making 'shady' sound dodgy!!!
