In this episode of The Unsidelined Life, Eileen Noyes uses Proverbs 31:4 to explore the difference between legalistic rules and convictions formed through a personal relationship with God. She shares how her strict no-alcohol policy during her first marriage unintentionally taught her kids that alcohol itself was sinful—and how those rules collapsed during her divorce. A conversation with her eight-year-old son about two Christian families with opposite views on alcohol helped her teach that conviction should come from God, not pressure from others. Eileen also discusses her journey with yoga, how seeking God’s guidance led to healing after hip surgery, and why forcing convictions damages relationships. She explains that true transformation happens when conviction becomes internal, and while some biblical instructions are clear, others require seeking God personally.

Discover why your relationship with God should dictate your convictions, not rigid religious rules that create legalism instead of transformation.
