Show Notes

Not asking for help

• God is our greatest source of help (Ps.121)
• God intends us to live in community with others (Acts 2)
• Pride is often at the root of our not asking for help

Trying to make bad relationships work

• Sin disrupts and distorts our relationships
• God desires reconciliation
• However, when reconciliation doesn’t occur, the Bible warns us of the dangers of associating with “fools” or “the wicked” (Proverbs, Ps. 1)

Dwelling on your mistakes and shortcomings

• We all make mistakes
• Without a new identity in Christ, our mistakes are destined to define us
• True transformation is a gospel issue, not a self-help issue.
