13. Forgiving Yourself
One of the hardest people for you to give is...you. Happiness, paradoxically, begins when we can blame ourselves. But it doesn't end there... John Ortberg discusses one of his favorite books, Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky and he is pulling relevant truths from it that we can apply in our every day. Crime and Punishment catapulted Dostoyevsky to the forefront of Russian writers and into the ranks of the world's greatest novelists, one of the supreme masterpieces of world literature.

7. Re-drawing your map of God
Welcome to the series, Passage to Wisdom, where John Ortberg shares thoughts from books that have been deeply influential in his life. This week, John is looking at the book 'My God and I', a moving spiritual memoir from the pen of Lewis B. Smedes — renowned Christian author, beloved professor, keen theologian and ethicist, extraordinary human being. Today's topic: God's presence Verses: Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,” even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. Psalm 139:7-12 https://www.bible.com/bible/111/PSA.139.NIV Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel BecomeNew.Me and say hello in the comments.
