Pushing Back Against Karma Christianity | God’s Promises When Difficulty Visits Us


Listen Later

None of us would admit we view God as a cosmic vending machine who will dole out blessings if we only insert the right coins of our good works.  Yet, here we are, living as though this karma ideology was the gospel truth.


Momma Theologians Practical Takeaways 

  1. Read Matthew 11:28-30 and praise God for the truths of Jesus’ promises found there.
  2. Confess belief in Karma Christianity and pray that God will show you His nearness through your current difficulties.
  3. Journal about a difficult time in your past while paying special attention to God’s presence with you and your family.
  4. Think of another mom in your life that may be having trouble and pray for her. Ask God how you might support her well during this time.
