Join Pastor Stephen Mizell, Pastor Jay Rivenbark, and Pastor Sheryl Daughety as they explore the dangers of religious formalism and superficial fixes. Drawing from Jeremiah's prophetic warnings, this conversation challenges us to examine whether our faith has become empty ritual or genuine transformation. Scripture Focus: Jeremiah 6-8 - Jeremiah's prophecy exposing religious formalism, false peace, and shallow spiritual remedies. In This Episode: Empty religious rituals versus genuine faith How worship can manipulate emotions rather than transform lives "Healing the wound lightly" - superficial solutions versus deep spiritual healing The importance of self-awareness in avoiding formalism Key Quote: "Rarely does a preacher, a church, a movement start out to be evil. But there's a line that gets crossed, and the closer you get to it, the harder it is to recognize."
