Manage episode 518174520 series 2869651
What if the real reason you keep slipping back into the same sins is not a lack of willpower but a lack of the right battle plan? In this episode of Welcome to the Table, Khalil, Sean, and Jeff unpack the biblical idea of mortification of sin and show how the Holy Spirit, grace-filled effort, and Christian community work together to help you actually change.
You will learn:
- What Paul is really saying in Romans 7 and why that matters for your daily fight
- How to depend on the Holy Spirit instead of white-knuckled willpower
- The grace vs effort paradox and why effort is not earning
- Practical ways to “put off” the old self and “put on” the new
- Why confession, community, and sacramental rhythms break sin’s power
- * The habits that help you see and take God’s escape routes in temptation
