She was someone who was messy, angry, disorganized and didn’t fit. “When you grow up in a culture where you're judged by your behaviors, it can be hard to understand that God is less concerned with your behavior than the transformation of your heart.” Author, speaker, women’s Bible teacher and “former control-freak & coffee junkie” Hollylu Jostes Coon struggled with the idea of being a “good Christian” for many years before she discovered that God wanted to know her personally, rather than see her check every box of good practice.

Jenny’s guest for this segment is Pastor Jack Hibbs, the senior and founding Pastor of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, based in Southern California, Founder & President of Real Life Network, and a nationally syndicated TV & Radio host. They are talking about his book, “Living in the Daze of Deception: How to Discern Truth from Culture’s Lies.” He shares with us how Jesus warned that deception would grow worse as we draw nearer to the end times, saying, “Take heed that no one deceives you” (Matthew 24:4). Distinguishing truth from error has become an increasingly challenging task—even in the church.
We live in a time when falsehoods assault us from every direction. Packaged with just enough truth to make them appear trustworthy, these counterfeits have grown more and more difficult to detect and avoid. "Living in the Daze of Deception” explores the many ways error is masquerading as truth—and how you can discern the difference. The greatest antidote to deception is truth. Equip yourself now to grow in discernment so that you can protect yourself from error and remain steadfast in your faith!
