Welcome back to the Dare to be True Series on Stay True Podcast! Today, Madi is joined by John Bevere, best-selling author, speaker, and co-founder of Messenger International. This conversation dives into the truth about eternity and the fear and awe of God. This is a message our culture desperately needs to hear. John unpacks why eternity should shape how we live today, how the fear of the Lord leads to wisdom and intimacy, and why reverence for God is not something to run from but to run toward. They talk honestly about the urgency of living with eternity in mind, the danger of a casual approach to faith, and how holy awe transforms our relationship with God. Always stay you and stay true! Questions/topics discussed and answered: • How do you practically live with eternity in mind? • What does it really mean to fear the Lord? • How does holy awe draw us closer to God instead of pushing us away? • What dangers come with a casual approach to faith?
