How do you know when an everyday desire goes from good to sinful? Jake's story reminds us about how some desires "creep up" on us, as discontentment leads to fantasy—even if the object of the fantasy seems to be something as wholesome as church planting.
This episode is a perfect companion to the chapter in the Redemption book called: Demanding Manna—The Subtle Significance of Everyday Desires.
