Have you heard the old saying, “We have met the enemy and it's us?” In the Christian Life, sometimes our most persistent enemy of doing right is one old sin nature's desire to do wrong. Today on Monday Matters we'll listen to the words of encouragement given to us by the Apostle Paul who reminds us in Romans chapter 12 that your battle starts with you!

Have you sometimes struggled with knowing how to persevere past a problem in your life? God tells us in the book of James that problems and trials are a natural part of the Christian life. Remember that God is still able to bring good things out of bad times.

Every Christian is called to live a holy life unto the Lord but knowing and doing something can sometimes be a lot easier said than done. On today's Monday Matters Podcast, we'll look at how God's children can learn to live lives that live out the blessing of putting God's Will ahead of their own.

In this episode we're going to look at Chapter 11: “Holiness in Body” as well as Chapter 12: “Holiness in Spirit”
