After the High…

What do you do when church is over, and the spiritual high has ended? Do we just throw everything out the window and wild out? Or do we keep growing closer to Christ when no one is watching? It’s easy to act right when everyone is looking, and the music is playing, and the preacher is preaching, but when it all goes quiet, how do we carry that experience into our daily walk? This is the essence of season 4. Join us as we seek victory in Christ and press towards the mark.

In this episode:

• ·      How to live right when no one is watching 
• ·      The necessity of accountability on your journey to victory over sin
• ·      How to recognize the triggers that make us fall
