The religious trap: Jesus already did the work, why are you still striving?

CCNatters: Real Conversations Beyond Religion by Mo & Ileola

Episode notes

🎙️ Episode 3: "Stop the Religious Charade! Striving Won’t Save You"

Many of us have unknowingly turned faith into a performance—constantly striving, working, and trying to earn what Jesus already freely gave. But what if we’re stuck in a cycle of religious pressure that God never asked of us? 🤯

In this episode, we unpack: ✅ Why religious performance leaves us exhausted ✅ The hidden trap of striving instead of resting in grace ✅ How church structures may be unknowingly reinforcing a ‘works-based’ mindset ✅ The difference between working for God vs. letting God work through us ✅ What Jesus meant when He said, ‘It is finished’
