Intervention, Not Just Integration

Jan 18, 2026

In a world obsessed with self-improvement and wellness, we're constantly bombarded with messages that promise happiness if we just try harder, buy the right program, or follow the perfect routine. But what if the answer isn't found in our own efforts at all? This message cuts through the noise of the $6.3 trillion wellness industry to reveal a profound truth: we are, Father Justin's granny puts it, 'barely alive'—and that's okay, because we have a Savior who is fully alive. Unlike modern approaches that place all responsibility on our shoulders, the Gospel offers intervention rather than mere integration, pardon rather than just perspective.
