Follow along with our sermon notes here: https://www.thehubcitychurch.org/note/judges-gods-faithfulness-to-unfaithful-people-26-15-generational-drift/

In this message from Revelation 2, we explore Jesus' letter to the church in Pergamum, a church that stood strong under persecution but slowly drifted through compromise. Jesus warns that when pressure doesn't destroy you, pleasure will try to seduce you. From the doctrine of Balaam to the influence of the Nicolaitans, we uncover how small allowances, cultural conformity, and subtle mixture can erode spiritual authority from the inside out. “The Drift That Destroys” calls us to examine what we've tolerated, what we've blended, and how to intentionally return to a life of conviction, purity, and bold faith in a world that constantly pulls us away.

Join me and my guest Ben Muxlow, Founder and CEO of 4 Her Fitness (4herfitness.com). Ben is a faith-driven entrepreneur, pursuing impact on a national scale. As CEO of 4 Her Fitness, he leads a team of fitness coaches from across the country. While attending Northwood University Ben also co-founded the non-profit MAD Marketing Agency which gives scholarships to students in need. In this episode we explore the importance of efficiency, managing drift, and the necessity of building a team to scale a business effectively. Our conversation emphasizes the significance of impact, retention, and personal motivation in achieving success. Summary In this conversation, Ben Muxlow and Blaine discuss the challenges and insights of entrepreneurship, particularly in the fitness coaching industry. They explore the importance of efficiency, managing drift, and the necessity of building a team to scale a business effectively. The dialogue emphasizes the significance of impact, retention, and personal motivation in achieving success. Muxlow shares his journey from burnout to building a team of coaches, highlighting the importance of creating a supportive environment for both clients and employees. The conversation concludes with reflections on future aspirations and the importance of pivoting in the face of challenges.   Takeaways Efficiency is crucial when managing multiple roles in entrepreneurship. Burnout can be a significant challenge for entrepreneurs. Building a team is essential for scaling a business effectively. Client retention is linked to their sense of importance in the process. Impact is defined by the positive change in others' lives. Money is not the primary motivator; inspiration drives action. Creating a supportive environment fosters growth for both clients and coaches. The purpose of goals should focus on personal growth rather than just outcomes. Drift can hinder progress; staying connected to one's purpose is vital. Hiring the right people and developing them is key to long-term success. Learn more about your ad choices.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

When you're a high performer, you learn to endure. You adapt, take on more, carry a lot for others, and figure it out. And because nothing breaks, you keep going on momentum and autopilot. But there's a moment that quietly determines your next decade, one that doesn't look like failure or feel like a crisis. It's when the internal alignment between your life and who you are today has quietly expired, and you're still living by rules you wrote for yourself 20 years ago. In this episode, I'm sharing why 'success drift' is far more dangerous than failure for high performers, and the strategic reset that helps you recalibrate before the cost gets higher. This isn't about fixing what's broken, but examining the gap between who you were when you started and who you've become, then updating the internal operating system that's running your life. You'll learn how to recognize the subtle signs that you're drifting instead of intentionally leading, why great leaders pause early before misalignment becomes painful, and the questions that reveal what still fits and what no longer does. Because you don't need a new goal, you need a clear relationship with the life you're already living so you can assess what you're ready for today, not ten years ago. Our mission is to help you become unstoppable, enabling you to do your best work of your career while enjoying more inner peace and freedom.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

For five years, this podcast has been about starting—about identity, ownership, grit, and doing the hard internal work. But at some point, starting isn't the issue anymore. The real question becomes: how do you take the plan and move it to action? How do you move from motivation, which gets you in the gym on January 1, to discipline, which keeps you showing up on February 10 when the excitement fades?Today's conversation is about that shift. It's about what happens after the vision is clear, after the goals are set, and after the initial energy runs out. Because growth stalls when we try to carry everything alone. If we want to scale in business and in life, we need more than motivation. We need discipline, structure, feedback, and a community strong enough to hold the weight with us.Five Insights: 1. Motivation Starts. Discipline Sustains. Motivation is emotional. It's exciting. It's January 1 energy.Discipline is structural. It shows up when it's boring, inconvenient, or hard. If your growth relies on motivation alone, it will stall the moment things get uncomfortable. Discipline is what carries the vision when the emotion fades.2. You Will Plateau If You Try to Scale Alone. Early hustle works. Grit works. White-knuckling works… for a while. But just like a business, life scales through: Better systems, better feedback, and better people around you3. You Can't Out-Discipline What You Can't See. Blind spots don't announce themselves. Drift is quiet. Without feedback, you can be working hard in the wrong direction. Support doesn't replace discipline—it protects it.4. Growth Requires a Container. Growth doesn't happen randomly. It needs structure. You need a place to check in, to measure, to be honest... a place where excuses don't survive5. Support Is Infrastructure, Not Weakness. Community isn't for people who “can't handle it.”It's for people who want to scale. High-capacity operators break when they carry everything alone. The strongest leaders choose support on purpose. Growth starts internally. It sustains collectively. 

Guarding Your Heart Against Spiritual DriftAuthor: Dave JenkinsPodcast: Anchored in the Word with Dave Jenkins (Servants of Grace)Episode Type: Biblical TeachingShow SummarySpiritual drift is real and it rarely happens overnight. More often, it begins quietly through neglect, distraction, and misplaced priorities. In this episode of Anchored in the Word with Dave Jenkins, we answer the question: How can Christians guard their hearts against spiritual drift?Drawing from Hebrews 2:1, Proverbs 4:23, and John 15:4–5, this episode helps believers recognize the subtle dangers of drifting and calls us to stay near to Christ through the ordinary means of grace—God's Word, prayer, fellowship, worship, and life in the local church.Audio PlayerVideo PlayerKey ScripturesHebrews 2:1Proverbs 4:23John 15:4–5Romans 12:2Psalm 73:28Episode Notes1) Spiritual drift happens when we neglect the ordinary means of grace.Drift doesn't start with rebellion—it starts with neglect. A neglected Bible leads to a neglected heart. God has given His people the means of grace—Scripture, prayer, fellowship, worship, the Lord's Day, the preaching of the Word, and the ordinances—not as optional add-ons, but as His appointed pathways to spiritual stability.2) Spiritual drift happens when we stop paying close attention to God's Word.Hebrews 2:1 warns us clearly: “We must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it.” Like a boat without an anchor, the heart that stops listening carefully to Scripture will quietly move away from the shore. We must receive the Word regularly, reverently, and obediently—not merely hearing it, but submitting to it.3) Spiritual drift happens when we let the world shape us more than the Word.Romans 12:2 calls believers not to be conformed to this world. Drift often begins when media shapes us more than Scripture, when approval of man matters more than pleasing Christ, and when sin is treated casually. You will be shaped by what you regularly absorb.4) Spiritual drift is prevented by abiding in Christ.In John 15, Jesus does not say, “Try harder.” He says, “Abide in Me.” Spiritual stability grows as we remain connected to the Vine—trusting Christ daily, treasuring Him above all, relying on His strength, and staying near to His Word.5) Guarding your heart requires daily watchfulness.Proverbs 4:23 commands: “Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.” Watchfulness includes examining your heart regularly, confessing sin quickly, keeping short accounts with God, staying faithful in the local church, and maintaining a humble, teachable spirit.6) God's grace restores drifting hearts.If you realize you have drifted—grown cold, neglected prayer, worship, or the Word—here is the good news: God restores drifting hearts. You are not beyond His mercy. The same Jesus who warns us not to drift is the same Savior who restores, renews, and holds His people fast.Closing Scripture: “But for me it is good to be near God; I have made the Lord God my refuge.” (Psalm 73:28)Key TakeawaysSpiritual drift begins quietly through neglect, not usually through open rebellion.The ordinary means of grace are God's appointed pathways to spiritual stability.A heart anchored in God's Word is guarded from drifting.Abiding in Christ is the daily, sustaining answer to spiritual drift.God restores wandering hearts with grace, mercy, and kindness.Call to ActionIf this episode helped you, please subscribe and share it with others.

In this season finale, Kristina and Anna reflect on a pivotal personal update, then bring the Inner Villain framework full circle. The conversation weaves lived experience, healthcare advocacy, boundaries, emotional embodiment, and spiritual bypassing into a practical, grounded close to the season.This episode is about changing the script. Not by bypassing reality, but by meeting it honestly.Opening Update. Surgery, Uncertainty, and Narrative ChoiceKristina shares an update on a planned surgical biopsy that ultimately could not proceed. Rather than framing this as loss or avoidance, she explores how preparing for surgery moved a deeper story forward. Fear of death, fear of leaving family, and inherited narratives were confronted directly.Key themes:Reconciling with uncertaintyHow preparation itself can be transformationalChoosing meaning without denialLetting go of the need for visible “proof” of healingHealthcare Reality. Advocacy and Systemic Blind SpotsThe conversation shifts into a candid discussion about healthcare systems, fallibility, and the importance of self-advocacy.Highlights include:Why patients must advocate for themselvesThe power of asking providers to document refusalsGendered dismissal in medical settingsInsurance denial as a systemic issue, not a personal failureThis section grounds the episode firmly in lived reality before returning to psychological and spiritual frameworks.Control vs Illusion. Anchor and DriftAnna revisits a core distinction from earlier episodes: control-based villains versus illusion-based villains, reframed as Anchor and Drift.Key insight:Anchors grow through joy, movement, and emotional flowDrifts grow through responsibility, structure, and self-anchoringThis reframing avoids gendered language while clarifying relational dynamics across work, parenting, money, and intimacy.The 12 Steps as Villain WorkThe discussion explores how 12-step frameworks function as deep transformational tools within the Inner Villain system.Key points:Surrender as medicine for controlResponsibility as medicine for illusionWhy hybrid villains often benefit from bothAddiction, avoidance, and invisibility as shared rootsObedient Critic. Control in Everyday LifeBoth hosts share personal examples of how the Obedient Critic shows up in domestic life, hosting, and expectations.Topics include:Silent rules and unspoken standardsJudgment versus communicationHumor as a bridge away from controlLearning to state needs without shame or superiorityVengeful Martyr.
