49:14Now PlayingIn this episode of The Faith Roundtable, host Josh Burtram sits down with Justin Whitmel Earley (author, lawyer, and spiritual formation teacher from Richmond, VA) to explore a simple but disruptive thesis: your habits are not neutral — they are liturgies. We talk about why modern life feels uniquely distracting and anxious, how “deconstruction” has reshaped cultural trust and stability, and why embodied rhythms (sleep, Scripture, community, silence, limits with technology) are often the missing bridge between what we believe and how we actually live.
Justin shares the story behind The Common Rule (including the Youth Edition) and why practices like Scripture before phone aren’t legalism — they’re training in love: habits won’t change God’s love for you, but God’s love for you should change your habits.
