Yoked E8 - Samson's City Boy Summer

In this podcast episode, Yemi and Philia discuss the lust filled decisions made by Samson that ultimately led to his destruction. In picking spouses/partners, Samson was led by lust. Although God had a plan and purpose for Samson's life, his lust put him in compromising situations when he aligned with women that he was unequally yoked with. We may all have lustful desires but we do not all act on them. We must focus on being aligned with God's word and will for our lives first and foremost. If we are struggling with lustful desires and are tempted to step outside our marriage/relationship/partnership, we can take steps to overcome by confessing and seeking help.

Philia feels joy in diving deeper in her relationship with God and sharing her God given gifts, talents, and abilities with others. Her goal is to be a walking, living, breathing testimony of God's transformative power of love. The love of God shines brightly through Philia and anyone in her vicinity is drawn to that light.

Yemi - A native Brooklynite, Nigerian-American, Lawyer, Friend and Day One Christian. Yemi is a woman of passion and love for God. She takes time to understand life through the lens of her faith while finding most situations authored by God's comedy. Her desire to grow in faith came during her 2017-2018 episode of depression. She surrendered to God and felt peace in trusting in the Lord. God led her to start a live bible study and prayer call which flourished for two years with the help of her co-host Philia. Yemi desires to share her faith journey and struggles with everyone near and far. She relishes in the transformation and testimonies of others and her heart is most full when she is spreading love.
