The spiritual meaning of Alignment

Alignment in the Bible
Christian readers can connect alignment with integrity, obedience, wisdom, and wholeness without treating feelings as final authority.
Why Alignment matters
Alignment matters because many people know the feeling of being split between what they say, want, believe, and do. The term becomes useful when it moves from aesthetic vibe to concrete integrity.
Where readings of Alignment go wrong
