Why do people cheat? In this long-awaited, powerful episode of Serenity on Steroids, we move beyond the surface-level judgment and dive deep into the real root cause of infidelity: impaired self-worth.

We unravel how a foundational lie of worthlessness, often planted in childhood, manifests as jealousy, projection, and the fear of abandonment, ultimately leading to the destructive path of cheating. This isn’t about excuses; it’s about understanding the “why” so we can find true healing.

But this isn’t just a diagnosis. This is a message of hope and victory. We explore how this deep wound points us to the only one who can heal it, and how Jesus Christ bore our wound of worthlessness on the cross, exchanging our shame for His worth and our identity as orphans for our destiny as children of the King.

If you’ve ever struggled with feelings of not being enough, feared abandonment, or are trying to understand why relationships around you are failing, this episode is for you. This is a journey from brokenness to freedom, from shame to beloved identity.
