S8 Ep 339Sin, Repentance, and Spiritual Numbness: A Holy Week Wake-Up Call
In this wild-card episode of Fed by the Fruit, we take a sober, hope-filled look at sin and why it creates felt separation from God—like a dark curtain over a sunny window. We walk through the difference between inherited sin, imputed sin, and personal sin, then focus in on Hebrews 10:26 and what Scripture means by willful sin: not stumbling in weakness, but knowingly rejecting the light and choosing darkness. With Romans 1 as a warning, we talk about the real danger of spiritual numbness—when conviction fades—and the mercy of God that invites us back through confession and repentance. If you’ve been wrestling, take heart: struggle is a sign of spiritual life, and restoration is still possible.Reach out to KB on Instagram and share your thoughts.
