About this episode

Eric Thomas discusses the importance of removing negative self-talk to allow for personal transformation and spiritual rebuilding.

You keep praying for change. But the thing standing between you and the life God promised you isn't your past, your enemies, or your circumstances. It's the words coming out of your own mouth. In this message from the 52 Day Challenge, Eric Thomas breaks down what God removes before He rebuilds your life — and why the demolition has to come before the construction. You can't build a new life on yesterday's foundation. Before God adds, He subtracts. Before He builds, He demolishes. This is Week 1: DEMO. The deliberate removal of everything that's been tearing you down — starting with how you talk about yourself. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ABOUT ERIC THOMAS — ET THE HIP HOP PREACHER Eric Thomas, PhD, is a world-renowned speaker, author, and educator known globally as "ET The Hip Hop Preacher."
