How to be content with life, no matter what it throws at you.
As long as our hearts have the entitlement mentality, personal growth in our relationship with God and with others will cease.
When we aren’t actively resisting the forces of darkness, we become susceptible to letting our view of sin get rosy.
So much of life is impossible with only human effort. Start relying on God by learning why and how to fast and pray.
Obedience in the Bible is a pathway to humility and fulfilling life.
Vulnerability is key to building real and meaningful relationships
We all want to be cared for, known, understood, and loved for who we are. God is the starting place for this kind of intimacy.
God wants us to evaluate ourselves by how deep and strong our faith is. He doesn’t evaluate our spiritual condition by looking at how we appear on the surface. The depth of our faith determines how much of a difference we can make in the lives of those around us.
Learning how to deal with frustration Biblically is key to taming the anxiety that often accompanies anger.

In order to dig deep, we have to be willing to go through the process of discovering who we really are and what’s really in our hearts. We often like to stay superficial and avoid this process. Strain exposes who we really are. How do you handle the strain in your life? What comes out? How deeply rooted are you and able to handle the strain of life?
