Why does temptation always feel manageable right up until it isn’t? Temptation rarely shows up wearing a warning label. In this episode, the conversation digs into how Christians actually experience temptation in real life, not the dramatic, headline-worthy stuff, but the quiet decisions that add up over time. The kind that usually starts with “this isn’t a big deal” and ends with “how did I get here?” Nate and Dr. Joseph Tillman talk through the Christian perspective on temptation without turning it into a sermon or a self help checklist. They explore how faith, leadership, relationships, and church culture shape the way temptation is handled, avoided, ignored, or over-spiritualized. There is also an honest look at why knowing better does not automatically mean doing better. The discussion stays grounded in real experiences, including how expectations placed on Christians and church leaders can make temptation harder to talk about honestly. Instead of offering polished answers, the episode leans into self awareness, accountability, and the uncomfortable gray areas most people recognize but rarely say out loud. Hosted by Nate and Dr. Joseph Tillman, this episode blends humor, candor, and thoughtful commentary in a way that is accessible for both Christians and skeptics who are tired of simple answers to complex issues.
