Every day we are faced with a battle of what our minds will be consumed by and engaged with. How do we actually grow in the Christian life?

Coleman M. Ford is an author, teacher, and speaker who serves as Assistant Professor of Humanities at Texas Baptist College in Fort Worth, Texas. In today’s episode we talk about his book Formed In His Image: A Guide For Christian Formation.

We talk about what true happiness is, our deep need for real friendship, the role of suffering in our formation, and the key to winning the battle over idols and temptation.
