Feed the Tiger – The Desires That Devour


Listen Later

This week’s conversation starts with laughs and lands deep. The crew picks up Paxton’s sermon illustration about feeding the tiger—those little desires we keep alive until they grow teeth. From late-night scroll sessions to collecting Beanie Babies and Dr. Squatch soaps, everyone admits they’ve got their own “tigers.” It’s funny, but it hits close to home.

The group turns the corner to what Scripture says about desire. Psalm 37:4 and 1 Peter 5:6 remind us that when we delight in the Lord, He reshapes what we want—and when we humble ourselves, He’s the One who lifts us up. They talk about ambition, approval, and the moments when God flips our motives from self-promotion to kingdom purpose. It’s honest, hopeful, and a good reminder that some things need starving… and others need surrendering.

Before wrapping up, the guys highlight Harvest Fest on October 26—a chance to turn good intentions into real ministry by serving, smiling, and sharing the gospel with thousands of neighbors.
