Episode notes
The Escape Room
- We are trapped in an escape room of our own brokenness, repeating negative patterns.
- We often don't realize we're trapped, making escape difficult.
Outcomes vs. Processes
- People confuse desired outcomes with the necessary processes.
- We want the result (looking good, forgiveness) without the work (healthy habits, changed life).
Choose Life
- Focus on the process of living a good life, not just seeking forgiveness.
- True life comes from aligning with God's design, not chasing temporary pleasures.
