Have you ever thrown yourself a pity party?

Even if you claim you haven’t, I’m guessing you know someone who has. Self-pity has us putting our focus on the hardship or situation and then expecting others to join us in that space. Here is the thing, when we let self-pity take over, we are saying that God is not good, that He is not full of mercy, grace and love. We have decided that pity is more important - but in fact it does not do anything for us except make us feel bad. This episode is Week 3 of the seven deadly sins where we will share how self-pity keeps us from the fullness of God.

We all know that feeling of our heart beating fast, blood rushing to our face, breathing is shallow because we are angry. So angry that we could scream - and sometimes we do. But after our hearts have slowed down and breathing has gone back to normal, when was the last time we looked at what was at the root of our anger? Even looking at what God has to say about being angry? In this episode we are opening up the conversation about the deadly sin of anger. What does it mean, how it connects to us and where God is calling us to something bigger than we can even see.

When we hear the word sloth it's typically the animal that comes to mind. But have you thought of it as something that if you engage in keeps you from what God is asking you to do? Sloth goes against not only the very nature of God but puts us in a posture of apathy and giving up.

In this week's episode of the Seven Deadly Sins we will define what the Bible says about sloth and how it is in opposition to the exceedingly abundant life that God has for each one of us.
