He used to bully one kid at school, until the day he punched that kid and the kid shot him. Getting shot didn't fix him. It made him even crazier. You'll hear what finally humbled him, and how he went from chaos to peace.

What I realized is that when you don't have something of your own, it's easy to depend on someone else to make you feel validated. Someone once asked me why God won't give them their godly spouse, and I told them it's because God is making them into one. The real question to ask yourself is, would you date you? That question made me realize I wasn't even where I needed to be to date the person I wanted.

He kept asking God for the lesson behind it all. Here's what he found: your pain is usually not what hurts you most. It's the thought that a real Christian shouldn't be struggling at all. You'll also hear why King David complained to God out loud, and why that pulled him closer instead of further away.   For Live Event Information and to RSVP click here: https://events.coreoftheheart.com/   🤝 WE'RE HIRING A-players at Core of the Heart!  Apply here: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/coreoftheheart We have open roles in Content and Media, Digital Marketing, and Live Events Production.   In just 1.5 years, God has grown this community to over 3 million people worldwide.

📲 Make God a daily habit in your life: https://download.coreoftheheart.com/spotify-uw   If you keep falling back into lust, it's not because you're not trying hard enough. Someone asked me how to deal with temptation when they're not strong enough and keep falling short. Most of us fight it like we're fighting fire with fire. Then we fall once and immediately go, "Now I'm a porn addict. Now I'm a backsliding Christian." We turn what we did into who we are. But the Bible says you're still a new creature, and the righteous fall seven times. Don't trust the lust.
