Send us a textAs humans, it can be difficult to choose the route of obedience, especially when it tests our own comfort or desire. In this episode, Tabitha Caplinger chats with Lauren Earls and Ricky & Nikki Farney about the importance of self-control and how this fruit partners with the others we've been learning about through the series! They each share great insight into how the Holy Spirit helps lead & guide us to what is best for us, even when it's difficult to follow. But, when we trust God, we'll experience the goodness He has promised us! Ricky & Nikki help lead Celebrate Recovery, a group that helps anyone dealing with hurts, habits, or hangups.
