What does it actually mean to live a "FULL" life in your faith walk?

Welcome to Faith Unfiltered Life—a podcast for the seeker, the skeptic, and the worn-out believer, filmed live at Naples Church in Naples, Florida! In this episode, hosts Jojo Palacio, Karen LaFollette, Leon Palacio, and John Bell break down the biblical reality of living a Faith Unfiltered Life (Live FUL).

Moving past the pressure of pristine church perfectionism, religious performance, and cultural comfort, the team shares honest personal stories—from John standing up to corruption in his police department to Karen learning radical obedience in everyday moments. We unpack Paul’s warning in Hebrews 5 about moving past "spiritual dullness" and stepped-up accountability, asking what it truly takes to surrender, grow in discernment, and live out your faith in the real world.
