Ep 068: Why Do Christians Drift Away from God?
May 25, 2026 • Jesse Hailey, Michael Moos, McKenzie Banks
How does someone go from being on fire for God to feeling distant or lukewarm? In this episode, we talk about what it actually means to drift away from God and how it often happens gradually rather than all at once. We walk through the warning signs of spiritual drift and why it can be hard to recognize in ourselves.
We also address the big question many people are afraid to ask about whether someone who drifts away is still saved and what the Bible says about that. Most importantly, we talk about how to return to God, rebuild intimacy with Him, and guard your faith from drifting in the first place.
Topics discussed: backsliding, lukewarm faith, spiritual drift, staying close to God, salvation, Christian growth.
