You're in a battle—whether you realize it or not. Ephesians 6 reminds us that the real fight isn't against people, politics, or circumstances, but against spiritual forces that seek to divide, discourage, and destroy. The good news? You don't have to fight in your own strength. God equips you with His power and armor to stand firm when the struggle gets real.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside's conviction that God's grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God's presence and activity in your life.
This week, Pastor Rob Curington shares Paul's testimony from the Book of Colossians.
In this message, Derric Bonnot explores the apostle Paul's writings in Romans 7 and the persistent struggle with sin that affects all believers, emphasizing that while the struggle is real and ongoing, it is also good because it reveals our need for Jesus, who alone can rescue and transform us through grace and the Holy Spirit.
Nothing compares to the freedom found in Jesus. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we are no longer slaves to sin and death. That's real freedom.
You don't have to fix yourself. Sin is heavier than we realize, but God's grace is greater than we can imagine. Let's unpack the kind of grace that saves, transforms, and sets us free.
Right. Wrong. Sin. Grace. These words get thrown around a lot—but do we really know what they mean? We're cutting through the noise and going straight to God's Word to see who decides what's right and wrong, why sin matters, and how Jesus meets us in our failures.

EPISODE 12: The Struggle Is Real Dying Laughing with Jessimae In this episode of Dying Laughing, Jessimae takes on the messy, universal theme of struggle and proves it doesn't have to define us. She answers fan-submitted questions about everything from navigating suicide loss, to the challenges of single parenting, to what it feels like to believe you're unworthy of love. Jessimae also opens up about her own battles with acne, loss, and the heavy days that shaped her and finds the humor and light tucked inside the hard stuff. Along the way, her sister makes a quick (and hilarious) appearance, reminding us that sometimes the best medicine for struggle is connection. This one's real, raw, and ultimately hopeful - a reminder that whatever you're going through, you're not alone in it.
We all feel it—the tug-of-war between sin and grace. The struggle is real… but so is the hope we have in Jesus.
THE VIBE with Kelly Cardenas presents What are you struggling with right now?Most of us fight battles in silence—stress, fear, bad habits, or just the weight of life itself. But my Pops, with thunder in his voice, always reminded me of a truth I didn't want to hear but desperately needed: “Boy, He can only work with what you freely give Him.”This episode dives deep into Proverbs 26, unpacking the contrast between wisdom and foolishness—and why our struggles persist when we hold on instead of handing them over.Here's what you'll discover:Why wisdom leads to honor, discipline, and strength—while foolishness brings the opposite.How discernment and diligence protect us from unnecessary struggle.The power of surrender: the difference between keeping control and freely giving it to Him.The practical path to joy, peace, and love—rooted in a wisdom that transforms everything.At the end of the day, the question isn't whether we'll struggle—it's whether we'll keep holding onto it or finally give it up.

Even Paul wrestled with sin. His inner battle reflects what every believer feels: wanting to obey, but falling short. This war within doesn't mean you're not saved—it means you are. Take heart: Jesus has already won the victory.

Show Notes: slpnow.com/222Referrals shouldn't feel this overwhelming, but--for most school-based SLPs--they do. In this episode, I'm diving into the real data behind referral stress, straight from 434 SLPs who shared their biggest challenges. From missing background info to that infamous springtime referral flood, we're unpacking why this process is so hard. If you've ever felt stuck, rushed, or just plain exhausted by referrals, this one's for you. You're not alone, and there is a better way.
When in Rome - "The Struggle is Real" - Romans 7:14-25 Many of us feel trapped by sin, as if something within us is pulling us in the wrong direction. This internal struggle between our desires and what we truly need can be overwhelming—even the apostle Paul expressed deep frustration with it. Yet, we are not without hope. Just like a hero coming to the rescue, Jesus is the answer to our struggle and the one who sets us free.
Christians often experience an internal tug-of-war between their desire to follow Christ and the pull of sin. In Romans 7, Paul candidly describes this struggle, confessing that he doesn't understand why he does what he hates instead of what he wants to do. This isn't a contradiction of his teaching about freedom from sin, but rather an honest acknowledgment of the ongoing process of sanctification that all believer experience. Paul distinguishes between his new identity in Christ and the ongoing presence of sin in his flesh, comparing it to having a heart transplant where the body must relearn to function with the new heart. The Christian life isn't about behavior modification through trying harder, but spiritual transformation through trusting deeper. This internal war is between our inner being that delights in God's truth and our flesh with its old habits and sinful desires. While justification (being declared righteous) is complete, sanctification (becoming more like Christ) is an ongoing process. The answer to this conflict isn't found in more rules or willpower, but in Jesus Christ who delivers us. Grace doesn't eliminate the struggle, but it means we're no longer fighting alone or defined by our failures.
