What if someone handed you an X-ray of America's spiritual health? According to research discussed by National Religious Broadcasters President and CEO Troy Miller, nearly 60% of Americans affirm the core doctrines of Christianity. They believe in the virgin birth, the resurrection, and the saving work of Christ. Yet when asked whether those beliefs consistently shape their daily decisions and worldview, only 13% said yes. It's a startling revelation—and one that helps explain much of the confusion, anxiety, loneliness, and spiritual hunger we see around us today

Many Christians pray faithfully, yet still feel like their prayers are hitting a ceiling. In this episode of The UPside, Marion MacKenzie Pyle sits down with author and teacher Steve Hemphill to explore a question that so many believers quietly carry: Why do some prayers seem to break through, while others remain unanswered? The answer, they explain, is not that God isn’t listening—it’s that there may be spiritual resistance at work.
