Training, Not Trying

Ever feel like you're constantly trying, but never truly training for life's big race? In this message, we tackle the transformative mindset shift from attempting to actively preparing for success in all aspects of life, especially through the lens of spiritual growth. Inspired by the Apostle Paul's "run to win" exhortation, we dissect the "theology of trying" that leaves so many in a cycle of failure and propose a disciplined commitment to growth that can lead to victory in our personal and spiritual lives.

Imagine applying the dedication of an ancient Greek athlete to your faith journey. That's exactly what we explore in this message, where we contrast the half-hearted efforts of trying with the transformative power of true commitment. Jacob discusses practical tools and daily practices that equip us to become the person God has called us to be, highlighting how training, not trying, paves the path to sustained success.

Setbacks and heartaches aren't just obstacles; they're part of our training, molding us into who God has made us to be. Whether you're taking your first steps or seeking a deeper connection, let this message be your starting block in the race to win.
