The Art of Living | Self Control is Strength | Proverbs 14 | Dr. Erik Thoennes
About this episode
This episode discusses the importance of self-control in the Christian life, emphasizing its role in wisdom and the influence of God’s Word, Spirit, and people.
Why is self-control such a big deal in the Christian life? In this message from our Art of Living series, we look at Proverbs and discover that self-control is not optional fruit for a follower of Jesus, it is essential to a wise life. This sermon unpacks how true wisdom begins with the fear of the Lord, why self-control is about rightly ordered loves rather than repression, and how God uses His Word, His Spirit, and His people to shape us. If you’ve ever struggled with anger, impulsiveness, distraction, appetite, desire, or inconsistency, this message points us back to Jesus, our wisdom, our example, and our help.
