Building or rebuilding our emotional lives will allow us to grow our character as we walk with God and develop our strength from the inside out.
In this episode, we learn how to build a church on hope the way Jesus did—by cultivating purpose, humility, endurance, impact, and inspiration.
Returning to God is the only way we can stop living for people, stop being afraid of being different, and rediscover what it means to think differently.
If we don't have a biblical view of Jesus, we can become consumed with our personal preferences and traditions, and resistant to change.
God notices what we go through, even if no one else does, and he wants to do something about our pain.
The parables of Jesus show that he understands you, can help you understand yourself, and help you understand God.
We need to acknowledge what is wearing us out, especially the ways in which we become focused on rules and behaviors.
We all experience feeling stuck at times, whether it be in hardships, relationship conflicts, failures that follow us wherever we go, or guilt that feels too big for us to carry on our own.
It helps to remember an important quality of Jesus — that he is always with us.
A lot of the problems we get into in life come because we are searching for love—often in all the wrong places.
