65: The Revolutionary Approach to Health Jesus Wants You to Know
This episode continues the series on the spiritual component of health, focusing on specific sins that can compromise our health, such as pride. David Sandstrom explains that while most Christians have made progress in addressing public or visible sins, private sins like pride, fear, unforgiveness, anger, and jealousy can still hinder our spiritual growth and physical health.
David emphasizes that there is no such thing as "harmless sin" and that God wants to transform us, not just have us coexist with our brokenness. The episode delves into the dangers of pride, explaining that while a healthy self-esteem is good, destructive pride can lead to selfishness, conceit, and a closed-off attitude that prevents learning and growth. Humility is presented as the key to winning spiritual battles and submitting to God's will for our lives and health.
