🎧 Faith Without Works Is Dead: Are You Just Believing or Actually Becoming?
Are you walking it out—or just talking it up?
In this episode of the Scratch Everything Podcast, Shanika gets real about James 2 and the convicting truth that faith without works is dead. This isn't about performance or trying to earn God’s love—it's about proof. Proof that you’re being transformed. Proof that your belief actually turns into obedience.
If you've been coasting on belief, quoting scriptures, attending church, and still wondering why your life doesn’t look like what God promised… this episode is your heart check.
We talk about:
Why conviction alone doesn’t lead to change
How delayed obedience is actually disobedience
What it really looks like to live by faith, not just claim it
The difference between spiritual hype and spiritual fruit
What to do when you’re tired, passive, or stuck in a loop
This is for the believer who wants to grow up spiritually, stop playing it safe, and start becoming who God actually called them to be.

🎙️ Quote to take with you:
“You don’t have a faith problem — you have a follow-through problem.”
