Episode Title: Falling Forward: Recognizing Spiritual Drift
Episode Summary:Hey, Healing Bestie! Welcome back to the Trauma to Testimony podcast. In this episode, we’re kicking off our new series, Falling Forward, with a deep conversation about recognizing spiritual drift and what it means to fall away from God.
Toni shares her personal experience of navigating life transitions, feeling distant from God's presence, and realizing the impact of making decisions outside of His will. She opens up about the struggle of doing all the right "Christian" things—praying, reading the Bible, going to church—while still feeling disconnected from God. If you've ever felt like you're going through the motions but missing the intimacy with Him, this episode is for you.
We’ll explore what falling away can look like, how one decision can lead to a pattern of drifting, and why true intimacy with God is the key to staying in His will. Get ready for an honest and raw conversation that will encourage you to reflect and realign with God’s presence.
