Dr. Evonne explores the themes of self-control, temptation, and the importance of faith in navigating life's challenges with First Lady Melanie Johnson from Bethesda Temple Church of Missouri. The significance of daily practices such as prayer and scripture reading, the role of godly counsel and accountability, and how grace allows believers to embrace their humanity while striving for discipline are discussed. The conversation emphasizes that self-control is not merely about willpower but is a freeing aspect of living in alignment with God's will.
