Apathy is a word meaning "lack of interest, enthusiasm, or concern." Spiritually-speaking, it is a dangerous road to go down. There may be seasons in which we feel a pull towards apathy in our lives. Left unchecked, we can succumb to a number of things. But if we recognize those seasons, what are some ways we can be spurred on to grow in Christ? Today's episode outlines some ideas and practical steps that can help us avoid or pull out of apathy. The bottom line is also addressed: apathy stems from a place of loneliness and that loneliness is birthed in a lack of intimacy. So if we are apathetic, it follows that our intimacy with the Lord is not where it should be.
