She shares why followers of Jesus must remain alert and sober-minded, recognize the reality of spiritual warfare, and avoid entering the battle unprepared.\nDrawing from Luke 14:25–35, Lauren discusses what it means to count the cost of following Jesus. She also explains how an ancient soldier’s belt secured his clothing, supported his weapons, and prepared him to move effectively—and how God’s truth provides that same essential foundation in our spiritual lives.\nIn a world where truth is often treated as relative, how can we stand firmly on the absolute truth of God’s Word? Lauren offers practical encouragement for putting on the Belt of Truth by reading Scripture, meditating on it, and using it to confront the enemy’s lies.\nWhen lies threaten to distort your identity or trip you up, return to what Scripture says about who you are. God’s truth prepares, protects, and equips you to stand firm.\nSubscribe or follow The Lauren Turner Podcast for biblical devotions, honest conversations, and faith-filled encouragement for everyday life.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/XqSTz4DlLmHLPlj_5ZGSHxhcsNBqzo0qncAjV_62wqc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85NjY1/ZTE0NTNiNzM1Nzdm/MWM3N2Y5NjIzZmZh/MTY1OC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
