This Is Why You Keep Relapsing Over and Over

About this episode

Spencer Sutton discusses the reasons behind repeated relapses into sin and emphasizes the importance of considering one's spiritual state through scripture.

Why do we keep giving in to the same sins? Because we've believed a lie. Spencer walks through Hebrews 11:13-19 and lands on one word: considered. It's the same Greek word Paul uses in Romans 6:11 when he says "consider yourselves dead to sin." It means to take an inventory. To deliberately think through what's true. Three things every man needs to consider daily. Then Spencer gets practical about what your time with God actually looks like, including a 6-layer funnel for engaging with Scripture.
