Episode 8: Western Mindset vs Filipina Mindset

FIC

Hellol fellow ambassadors of Christ, and welcome to another uplifting episode of Simply in Christ!
Today's episode is an exciting one especially for you Christian couples out there: Western Mindset vs Filipina Mindset
Picture this: in one corner, we have Errol, who has traversed the bustling streets of Amsterdam for 37 years, encountering all manner of worldly temptations along the way.
And in the other corner, we have Ichelle, steadfast in her conservative beliefs long before she found her refuge in Christ. Quite the duo, wouldn't you say?

Now, as ambassadors of Christ, we're no strangers to conflict. From differences in age and cultural backgrounds to varying church traditions, we've faced our fair share of challenges.
But here's the thing: amidst the differences, amidst the disagreements, amidst the trials, there is a common thread that binds us together—our unwavering faith in Jesus Christ.

Colossians 3:2 (KJV) beckons us to set our minds on things above, not on earthly things. And let's be real, in a world saturated with distractions and diversions, that's no easy task. But as fellow ambassadors of Christ, we know that when we fix our gaze on Him, the chaos of this world fades into the background, and true unity is revealed.

Galatians 5:16-17 (KJV) reminds us of the ongoing battle between our fleshly desires and the Spirit's leading.
But as we yield to the Spirit, as we allow His guidance to permeate every aspect of our lives, we find strength to overcome, and unity flourishes in the most unexpected places.

And oh, how comforting are the words of Romans 8:38-39 (KJV) reassuring us that nothing—absolutely nothing—can separate us from the love of God. Not cultural differences, not disagreements, not even the fiercest of trials. His love knows no bounds, and in Him, we find our truest source of unity.

As fellow ambassadors of Christ, let us strive to bear the fruits of the Spirit, as outlined in Galatians 5:22-23—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
For when these fruits manifest in our lives and in our relationships, we become beacons of light in a world desperately in need of unity and reconciliation.

So, dear friends, as we journey together as fellow ambassadors of Christ, let us remember that our unity in Him is our greatest strength. Regardless of our cultural backgrounds, regardless of our differences, in Christ, we are one.
