What Is the Purpose of This Life? | Humility, Eternity, and Living for What Matters

What is the purpose of this life? If it’s not to amass wealth, status, entertainment, or happiness, then what are we actually living for? In this episode of Walking Defined, Kate and Baylee slow down and wrestle with the bigger picture — eternity, humility, spiritual warfare, and the quiet ways distraction and pride pull us away from God. This conversation is grounded in Scripture, personal reflection, and a renewed urgency to live for what truly matters. The episode was sparked by Baylee reading The Final Quest by Rick Joyner, an allegorical vision of the Christian life that opened a deeper understanding of humility, pride as a tactic of the enemy, and why we must be clothed in humility to even see the spiritual battle we are in. Kate and Baylee unpack why the spiritual battle never takes a break, how even good pursuits can become vanity when rooted in self, and why this life is meant to prepare us for the next. They also discuss the urgency of salvation, the danger of distraction, and what it looks like to live intentionally for the Kingdom rather than building our own. This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and reorient your priorities toward eternity. In this episode, you’ll hear about: Why pride is a primary tactic of the enemy The “cloak of humility” and why humility allows us to see clearly Why the spiritual battle never takes a break How distraction keeps believers passive The difference between happiness and joy Why wisdom, wealth, and status can still be vanity The urgency of choosing eternity What it means to store up treasures in heaven Why humility is not self-hatred or lack of confidence How silence, stillness, and listening shape discernment A closing prayer for reordered priorities and renewed focus Scripture referenced: Ecclesiastes 1–2 Matthew 6:20 James 1:19–20 Philippians 4:7 Proverbs 18:21 Luke 10:38–42 Connect with Us: Instagram: @walkingdefined Email: walkingdefined@gmail.com
