We live in a universe of cause and effect. As Galatians 6 warns, "Whatever a man sows, this he will also reap." So what happens when someone continually sows to idols instead of God? This episode, we dig into the patterns of a self-serving life, expose the spiritual dangers, and reveal the inevitable consequences that follow.

From the Chapel: It is impossible to serve two masters, for we will love one and hate the other. We cannot hate the world in our flesh. We must see how beautiful Jesus is if we are to turn away from sin.

It's a force to be reckoned with and has served as the linchpin for many Pure Life grads in their life-long freedom from addiction.

Timeless Truths: Walking through the aftermath of our sin can easily lead us into self-pity. It can also lead us to ignore lessons God is trying to teach us. But if we walk through consequences by putting our trust in the Lord and seeking to learn the lessons He has for us, we will find a tremendous amount of good can come out of them. In this interview from the archives, Austin Kropf joins us to share some of the attitudes we should have if we are to let the Lord have His way and accomplish His will in our lives while going through the effects of sin.

When you look at your daily choices, what do they reveal about your true devotion? If someone observed your life for a period of time, what would they say defined you? Our devotions aren't just what we say we value. They're revealed in how we live.

In episode 4 of our "Wholly Devoted Disciples" series, we unpack the vital topic of devotion and challenge ourselves to live fully for Jesus.

The Old Testament is full of imagery of God's holiness. The consecration of the priests and vessels for the temple powerfully illustrate how we must reflect that holiness ourselves. But a lot of Christians today seem to think holy and consecrated lifestyles are just for those who lived during the "first big section of the Bible." But the truth is, they really do apply to our lives today, and are deeply connected to victory over sexual sin.
