Unfiltered Faith

This was a real and honest conversation about what it actually means to be a deacon in today’s world and how easy it is to confuse serving with status. Dn. Leule sits down with Dn. Dani and Dn. Sami to talk about “deacon clout,” the pressure of appearances, and the difference between being seen serving and actually living like a servant. We get into the reality of pride, titles, social media perception, spiritual responsibility, and what humble leadership actually looks like when no one’s paying attention. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to be a true servant beyond the title, this conversation is for you.

This was a real and honest conversation about what it actually looks like to live out your faith after the moment is over. Miraf sits down with Dn. Mihret, Dn. Ananiya, and Dn. Yosyas to talk about why we even gather in the first place, how easy it is to get caught up in the hype, and what it means to stay rooted when no one’s watching. We get into the reality of conference highs, distractions from social media, and the daily choices that actually shape your faith. If you’ve ever walked away from something spiritual and wondered “what now?”, this conversation is for you.

In this episode of Unfiltered Faith, we talk about what it really means to live out our faith while being surrounded by people of different beliefs. Reflecting on Christ’s words in Matthew 5:15–16, we discuss how our lives as Christians are meant to shine before others not for our own recognition, but so that God may be glorified. Through personal experiences and insights from Church Fathers like St. John Chrysostom and St. Cyril, we explore the challenges of staying faithful in school, work, and social circles, what can sometimes “dim” our light, and how love, patience, prayer, and genuine friendship can become powerful ways that others encounter the grace of God through us.
