The Slow Fade

The Slow Fade — How Small Sins Build Big Strongholds
Nobody wakes up in chains. You walk there, one compromise at a time.
In this Season 2 opener, Matt takes you inside one of the hardest seasons of his life, a relationship wrapped in compromise, betrayal, and the weight of PTSD. But this isn’t just his story. Scripture warns us about the “slow fade,” from James to Galatians to the story of Samson himself.
This episode unpacks:
How small compromises drift us farther than we realize
Why silence in the face of compromise isn’t neutrality, it’s agreement
Samson’s story as a mirror for our own
Desire → Deception → Death (James 1:14–15)
How the price of delay compares to the reward of repentance
Chains don’t break themselves. But Jesus still does.
