In a world of endless content, constant opinions, and information overload, what we consume is literally shaping who we become. Rico and Luke dive deep into one of the most overlooked aspects of spiritual health: the direct connection between what we feed our minds and the strength of our faith.

This isn't just another "limit your screen time" conversation. The guys explore the ancient Greek concept of Ataraxia - a state of serene calmness - and why this 2,000-year-old idea might be exactly what modern Christians need to hear.

In This Episode, You'll Discover:

• Why what we consume daily is either strengthening or weakening our faith
• The surprising root cause behind most sin struggles (and it's not what you think)
• How to achieve Ataraxia in an age of constant noise and anxiety
• Whether science can actually justify faith - or if we're asking the wrong question
• Practical steps to audit what's influencing your mind and spirit
• Why ancient wisdom offers solutions to modern spiritual problems

Rico and Luke get honest about their own struggles with information overload, social media consumption, and the challenge of maintaining spiritual focus in a distracted world. They tackle tough questions about faith and science while offering practical wisdom for finding peace and clarity.

This conversation challenges the idea that more information automatically leads to stronger faith. Sometimes, the path to spiritual growth requires less consumption, not more.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by conflicting voices, struggling to find peace in chaos, or questioning how faith fits with modern scientific thinking, this episode offers both ancient wisdom and practical tools for the journey.

Perfect for: Anyone feeling overwhelmed by information overload, Christians wrestling with faith and science questions, people seeking deeper spiritual peace, and those wanting to understand how daily consumption habits affect their relationship with God.
