  • My Pastor Said I Was Manipulative. I Wanted To Burn His Church Down | #085 | Unlearned Wisdom
    ๐Ÿ“ฒ Make God a daily habit in your life: https://download.coreoftheheart.com/yt-unlearned-wisdom I quit filling every silence with my phone, because reaching for it the second things got quiet is a sign that I'm depending on something. But sitting in silence doesn't mean you're automatically hearing from God. Some people sit in silence and only hear their own thoughts, and then they think it's God. Don't trust all your thoughts; you have to have discernment, or you'll just end up listening to yourself. Shopify: Stop waiting for permission to build something.

He kept asking God for the lesson behind it all. Here's what he found: your pain is usually not what hurts you most. It's the thought that a real Christian shouldn't be struggling at all. You'll also hear why King David complained to God out loud, and why that pulled him closer instead of further away.

  • Stop Trying To Be A Better Christian (Do THIS Instead) | Discord Stage #070
    ๐Ÿ“ฒ Make God a daily habit in your life: https://download.coreoftheheart.com/yt-unlearned-wisdom You keep telling yourself you should be better by now. More faith, more discipline, more strength. But that pressure is what's crushing you, and it was never yours to carry. I had over 40 fights before I turned 16, and I still wake up with shoulder pain every morning. Just a few nights ago, it hit me that "I should be better by now" was really me saying God messed up, so here's what to do instead, and why being nothing compared to Jesus is the best news you'll ever hear.

  • Why You Keep Falling Back Into Lust (It's Not Willpower) | Discord Stage #069
    ๐Ÿ“ฒ Make God a daily habit in your life: https://download.coreoftheheart.com/spotify-uw If you keep falling back into lust, it's not because you're not trying hard enough. Someone asked me how to deal with temptation when they're not strong enough and keep falling short. Most of us fight it like we're fighting fire with fire. Then we fall once and immediately go, "Now I'm a porn addict. Now I'm a backsliding Christian." We turn what we did into who we are. But the Bible says you're still a new creature, and the righteous fall seven times. Don't trust the lust. Trust in God.

    ๐Ÿ“ฒ Make God a daily habit in your life: https://download.coreoftheheart.com/spotify-uw

    I spent many years in prison, and if I could give myself advice 20 years ago, here is what I would say. Stop trying to prove that you're strong, or that you're not broken, because that caused my own demise. I was scared to be myself, and I cared too much about what people thought of me. When you're broken, you think you've wasted your years, but God can use those years too. He takes everything that's broken and makes it beautiful again.

  • Prison Didn't Break Me, Trying To Be A "Good Christian" Did | #081 | Unlearned Wisdom

    ๐Ÿ“ฒ Make God a daily habit in your life: https://download.coreoftheheart.com/spotify-uw

    I grew up in a strict Christian home, but by my teens I was deep in gang life, and it landed me in prison with two felonies. When I became a Christian, I hid my tattoos and chased a title in the church so I could feel good enough. Trying to earn my way to God gave me panic attacks so bad, I begged doctors to scan my brain for a tumor. It got so dark I had thoughts of taking my own life. Then I heard one message about salvation, and for the first time, all that anxiety finally left.

  • So You Quit Every Addiction. Why Do You Still Feel Empty? | Discord Stage #067

    ๐Ÿ“ฒ Make God a daily habit in your life: https://download.coreoftheheart.com/spotify-uw

    In this video, I talk about why we reach for things like food, drugs, or pills, and how it is really about trying to fill a part of us that only God can fill. A man wrote in and told me he quit drugs, smoking, and drinking, but he is still stuck on pills, so I helped him see the difference between guilt and conviction.
