Help! I’m Struggling with the Same Things Over and Over

"The imagery in this passage is a person going to a mirror and looking at themselves in the mirror and forgetting what they look like. That's what it's like when we look into the mirror of God's Word and we walk away, and we are unchanged." — Natalie Abbott

HELP! I'M STRUGGLING WITH THE SAME THINGS OVER AND OVER

Help! I’m Struggling with the Same Things Over and Over: Our verse this month is not a call to just pull up our “good Christian bootstraps.” And that is good news! Join Natalie Abbott and Vera Schmitz, co-founders of Dwell Differently, as they share their real struggles with living this out, talk through practical questions we all have, and discuss real-life application for James 1:22. Are our good works what save us? What do we do when we find ourselves struggling with the same thing again and again? What does it mean to live in the Spirit and rely on God to help us? If you ever wondered those things, you won’t want to miss out on this honest conversation!

MARCH DWELL VERSE

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. — James 1:22
