Beat the Culture with Grace Walker

**BONUS UNRELEASED EPISODE recorded in August 2021** One of the most popular lies that the culture tries to feed us today is that "self love" is the key to happiness. As Christians, we know that this is a false ideology and that the only key to pure joy is to be found in Christ. That being said, the world is SO good at glorifying self love, and it can be hard to run away from this concept. Today, guest Lily Kate joins Grace Walker to unpack this worldly philosophy and use scripture to evaluate why self love is, in fact, TOXIC, and how we can fight those temptations with truth.

**BONUS UNRELEASED EPISODE recorded in August 2021** Today Grace sits down with Lily Kate- host of the Lily Kate show - to discuss how the radical feminist left has adopted an inverted view of the world in which women should be men, men should be erased, good is evil, and lies are the truth. We take a look at scripture to see what a biblical perspective of a true woman is, and how the culture has done it's best to eradicate these type of women from a position of support and further into a "negative" stigma. Don't let yourself fall victim to this false ideology- BEAT the culture.

Do YOU struggle sticking to your Christian morals in non-Christian environments? WE DO.

BUT... the Lord has blessed us with so many ways to remain faithful to him DESPITE temptation. In today's episode we talk about how we strengthen our relationship with God throughout our typical day to day, whether that be at work, school, etc. Peyton and I share personal experience and practical advice on how to keep God the center of all that we do.

Running back to different relationships, beliefs, and experiences to help us figure out who we are- but in reality the only thing we need is- oh wait... listen to find out. 

It is so easy to take for granted our freedoms when we have never experienced a life without them. It is easy to see your Bible on the shelf and decide "I'll read it tomorrow" because it's always there. The thing is, we don't realize how lucky we are. In today's episode we talk about the fact that billions of people in the world do not have access to a Bible, and how we can help spread the word of God to those who have not been reached.

No matter what age you're at, choosing a college and career path is a HUGE decision to be made. But I find it crazy that kids 17-19 are faced with this choice every year.

In this episode, hear my story and what I decided to do after high school- I hope it inspires you to think this decision through a little more!
