Last week, we talked about how temptation shows up when we’re overwhelmed, burned out, and just trying to survive.
This week, we’re continuing the conversation—looking at the quieter, more subtle places temptation shows up in our everyday lives.
Because sometimes it’s not about survival mode…
Sometimes it’s when you’re:
- Hurt or misunderstood
- Feeling unseen or overlooked
- Or honestly… when everything seems “fine”
In this episode, we talk about:
- Why hurt can make us want to pull others into our offense
- The temptation to isolate, avoid, or justify distance
- What it really means to feel unseen (and how we sometimes contribute to it)
- How “good seasons” can quietly pull us away from God
- And how to actually respond in the moment—not just in theory
We also break down three simple anchors to help you navigate temptation in real life:
The Spirit. Scripture. And Relationships.
This conversation is honest, layered, and incredibly practical—and a reminder that you are not alone in any of this.
If Part 1 helped you recognize temptation…
Part 2 helps you respond to it.

What is Everyday Truths?
Everyday Truths is where honest faith meets real life.
Hosted by Sherri Richard, this podcast is all about living out what you believe—in the middle of laundry piles, unexpected detours, and seasons that don’t look anything like you planned.
You won’t find polished sermons or Pinterest-perfect advice here. Instead, you’ll get vulnerable conversations, laugh-out-loud moments, and practical encouragement to follow Jesus in the everyday, ordinary, beautifully messy parts of life.
From candid solo episodes to heartfelt guest stories, Everyday Truths is a reminder that God meets us right where we are—not where we think we should be.
Pull up a chair. Bring your coffee. And let’s talk about faith for real life.
