339: By Their Fruits Ye Shall Know Them: What’s Real Always Reveals Itself

In this episode, Corrine and Neil share a simple story that turned into a powerful reminder about discernment and integrity. After test-playing several Steinway pianos, Corrine realized that the one that looked the prettiest on the outside wasn’t the one with the “rich and deep” sound she loved. Instead, the piano that felt like “the soul was speaking” to her was the one that didn’t look perfect at all. That experience opened the door to a bigger conversation about the scripture “By their fruits ye shall know them.” Corrine and Neil talk about how this same principle showed up again in an unexpected business conversation, and how true character and true value always reveals itself in the fruit, not the shine. Neil also shares how this applies in recovery, where “you can’t fake the fruit,” and how real change only comes through rigorous honesty and the atonement of Jesus Christ. This episode offers a grounded, faith-centered look at how to recognize what’s real, how to see people clearly, and how God helps us discern the truth beneath the surface.
