This episode wraps up the 5 part series on Urges. To enter the rest of God we must go into the future where our victory is complete and we have arrived at our destination. When it seems we are circling over the sea of suffering, we must persevere in believing and pressing on despite unwanted emotions and demanding urges that promise short term relief.  We can experience the joy and rest of God today as we partner with God in a battle that has already been won.

This is part 2 of the series Urges.  Urges are strong desires, almost a compulsion. Answering them may bring relief and even pleasure, but in the long game, answering urges that don't align with our goals and values creates greater suffering. Often times we will go unconscious and act like urges are happening to us, and yet we have the power to choose how we will respond. In this episode, I outline ways to respond to an urge and encourage listeners to choose a response that honors what is most important to them.

This is part one of the series Urges. An urge is a pressing desire, almost a compulsion, manifesting in all life areas of living, including relationships, health habits, and work goals. Urges feel uncomfortable, even painful when we don't answer them. However, when we obey unwanted urges, we experience prolonged and acute suffering. In this episode, I introduce and normalize the concept of urges including their purpose in our lives.
