Tension isn’t something to escape. And it isn’t always something to solve.
In this episode, we begin a new series exploring the tensions God intentionally holds together—tensions people keep trying to resolve, but can’t.
We look at Tradition and Progress, and why nostalgia and novelty are both shortcuts that promise relief but quietly undermine formation. Scripture doesn’t call us backward or forward into anxiety—it calls us to remain present, faithful, and settled before God.
Spiritual maturity doesn’t come from eliminating tension.
It grows as we learn to stay calm, grounded, and obedient within it.
God is not anxious.
And neither should we be.
If you’ve ever felt pressure to choose sides, fix everything, or escape discomfort, this conversation will help you recognise the difference between a problem to solve and a tension God may be using to form you.
