We’ve all heard phrases like “just have more faith” or “everything happens for a reason,” but what happens when positivity in the Church crosses the line and becomes something harmful? In this episode, we take a hard look at toxic positivity within Church culture and how it’s quietly shaping the way Christians process grief, doubt, and suffering. From the pressure to “always be joyful” to the tendency to silence real struggles with spiritual clichés, we unpack why ignoring pain is not biblical and how it’s actually hindering spiritual growth. Join us as we discuss how the Gospel makes room for both lament and hope, and why authentic faith means being honest about our brokenness. Let's get into it!
