JOHANNES 8:44

Have you ever asked yourself, “Why am I still wrestling with that sin?” Even the apostle Paul said as much in Romans 7:15: “I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate.” How do we stop sin from stopping our spiritual lives? Is it even possible? Let’s discuss sin, temptation, Satan, and, thankfully, God’s love.

Who are you? This question often receives a reply that states something we do. Yet, our identity comes from who God says we are—not what we do, and certainly not who others say we are. Knowing who we are as Christ followers is essential in our walk with Jesus. When we know who we are, we’ll know what to do.

Over the course of seven days, we will set our gaze on someone bigger and more powerful - Jesus, our giant slayer.

Do you find yourself exhausted looking through your newsfeed lately because you feel torn between the ideologies of our time?

Finding spiritual renewal in our day starts with recognizing the inner conflict between the lies we live and the truth that brings the peace we long for.
