  • In Between Takes The house-renovation metaphor

    Courtney describes inviting God into a damaged “house”  representing a person’s inner life and explains that real transformation requires more than surface-level cleanup. God must remove what is unhealthy, repair the foundation, rebuild the structure, and make room for new life.
