Listen "Why Do I Keep Doing This? - Week 3"
Episode Synopsis
"I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out." Ever felt like Paul when he wrote those words?
In Week 3 of our series, Lead Pastor Clay Monkus tackles a hard truth: The real problem isn't lack of effort—it's that sin is stronger than self-effort. No matter how hard you try, willpower alone will never be enough.
Through Romans 7:14-25, we'll dive into Paul's honest struggle and discover why "trying harder" keeps leaving us frustrated and defeated. This isn't a message about giving up—it's about recognizing that the battle requires a power greater than our own.
If you've been exhausted by your own efforts to change, if you've wondered why good intentions keep falling short, this message will help you see why self-effort was never meant to be the solution. There's a better way forward, but it requires surrendering our need to be strong enough on our own.
Stop trying to muscle your way to freedom. It's time to discover the power that actually works.
