Most of us are running our lives on autopilot, and never stop to ask why we do what we do. Pastor Christian digs into the hidden motivation behind our habits and spiritual practices, whether it’s fear of disappointing God, a sense of duty, trying to earn approval, or something else entirely. Working through Romans 12 and Paul’s call to offer our lives in response to God’s mercy, the message lays out four different reasons people try to change their lives, and why only one of them actually lasts. Along the way, there’s an honest story about a ruined Valentine’s Day, a confession about wanting the results without doing the work, and a simple picture of a sailboat that reframes what spiritual growth actually requires. It’s an invitation to examine your own motivation, whether you’ve never set foot in a church or you’ve been practicing your faith for years.
