Finding Your Spine | Perilous World Radio 4/02/25

On today’s episode of Perilous World Radio, host Alan Masters welcomed his co-host, Brian Bouteller, and discussed the theme of finding inner strength, also known as "spine." The conversation touched on the societal pressures people face when making difficult decisions, especially in times of crisis. Before we delve into the discussion, we would like to wish Roy Masters a Happy Heavenly Birthday. As the men continue on with their discussion, Brian reflected on the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting the pressure many felt to conform, such as wearing masks even when they weren't comfortable doing so. He emphasized that even those who pride themselves on their bravery may have succumbed to the fear that circulated during that tumultuous time. His point was that societal pressure can cause individuals to stray from their values, disrupting community connections and gatherings that are vital for shared support and fellowship. Alan reiterated the need for resilience during such times, hoping listeners would explore the concept of "finding your spine" and what it truly means to stand firm in one's beliefs and values, especially in the face of public scrutiny or fear.

Alan reflects on a powerful lesson he learned from his father: the importance of having a strong backbone. He shares that life has thrown him plenty of challenges, and there have been times he’s been knocked down. Yet, through it all, he understands that standing firm is essential. The key, he says, is captured in the words, "Be still and know that I am God." When we lean on our faith, even in moments of uncertainty, we can maintain our strength. It’s okay to admit, "I don’t know," but what truly matters is knowing who does. This mindset empowers us to rise up, even when the path ahead is unclear.
