Why You Secretly Hate Spiritual Growth....
We all want instant spiritual maturity. But in martial arts, mastering the craft takes years of grueling, unglamorous, repetitive drills. You have to respect the process to survive it.
In our walk with Christ, sanctification works the exact same way. Hebrews 12:11 tells us that God's discipline is painful in the moment, but it yields the "peaceful fruit of righteousness" to those who are trained by it.
As Warren Wiersbe famously said: "God is not punishing you; He is preparing you." Every trial, every setback, and every tough season is the Master Coach preparing you for a fight you don't even know is coming!
In this week's episode of The Drive Bible Podcast, Bob and Spencer break down the true meaning of God's discipline and how to endure it.
Shift Your Paradigm: How to stop asking "Why is God punishing me?" and start asking "What is He preparing me for?"
Submit to the Repetition: Why you must stop getting bored with the spiritual basics.
Look for the Fruit: How to endure the pain of the chisel to get to the harvest.
You will never master the art if you refuse to respect the drills.
