In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach asks: Is our natural negativity spiritually helpful? Drawing from brain science and biblical truth, he explores how our tendency to fixate on the negative can both hinder and help our walk with Christ. While godly sorrow can lead to repentance and discernment helps us pursue what is good, Scripture reminds us that we aren’t meant to stay stuck in the dark.
