Thriving On Earth: Renew the Mind Q&A - Ep.14

Q&A Live | Renewing the Mind, Relationships & Spiritual Maturity
Maria and Kivlyn host a Live, In-Person Q&A focused on what it means to renew the mind, mature spiritually, and live out Christ-centred truth on Earth.

This conversation explores the tension between the carnal and spiritual mind, the role of emotional and spiritual intelligence, and how self-centeredness and impulsive decisions quietly shape relationships, families, and partnerships. Through honest dialogue and biblical insight, this episode reveals how small decisions carry lasting ripple effects and why humility, self-awareness, and dying to self are essential for growth.

Building on the foundation of Know Your God, this episode helps believers move from revelation to application, learning how to thrive in marriage, parenting, business, and everyday life by living from a renewed nature in Christ.
