Episode Notes

You absolutely become what you’re surrounded by. In this Daily Fox Fuel, Mikel reminds us that environments don’t just influence us—they disciple us. The voices we listen to, the habits we normalize, and the culture we tolerate are all shaping who we are becoming. Even Jesus intentionally chose people who shared His mission, not just His moments. Anchored in Proverbs 13:20, this episode encourages listeners to evaluate their circle, make intentional shifts, and plant themselves among those who sharpen them for the calling ahead. If you want to grow in purpose and wisdom, get serious about what shapes you.

Episode Transcription

You become what you’re around. Every environment disciples you—voices, habits, values, culture. Jesus chose people who shared His mission, not just His moments. Proverbs 13:20 reminds us that walking with the wise makes us wise, but careless relationships can lead to harm. Inventory your environment and ask if the people around you are shaping you into who God has called you to be.
