Have you ever felt caught between two worlds—trying to follow Jesus while being bombarded by cultural messages that pull you in the opposite direction? That tension sits at the heart of this inaugural episode of Kingdom Over Culture, where host Ashley Potter and her mother Shana Ruff dive deep into what it truly means to live as kingdom citizens in today's world.
Starting with the challenging words of 1 John 2:15-17—"Do not love the world or the things in the world"—this mother-daughter conversation unpacks the profound differences between God's kingdom values and the world's systems. They tackle head-on the three worldly temptations that constantly vie for our allegiance: desires of the flesh, desires of the eyes, and the pride of life. With refreshing honesty, Ashley shares her own struggles with self-control and trusting God's provision when it contradicts cultural definitions of success.
What sets this discussion apart is how practical it becomes. From parenting decisions to career choices, from community building to Scripture reading habits, Ashley and Shana explore what "exercising righteousness" looks like in everyday moments. They challenge listeners to consider whether they're merely adding God to their schedule or truly building their lives around His kingdom priorities. As Shana poignantly observes, "What we think is valuable, God thinks we should walk on"—a perspective-shifting statement that makes us reconsider everything we chase after.
Whether you're new to faith or have been walking with Christ for decades, this conversation offers both challenge and encouragement for the journey. You'll walk away with a fresh understanding of what it means to be "in the world but not of it" and practical wisdom for choosing God's kingdom over culture every single day. And don't miss the promise of part two, where they'll tackle the difficult but transformative topic of suffering in the Christian life.
