A Bad Sales Pitch

Part 2

September 29, 2019 • Greg McEvoy

Have you ever signed on the dotted line, completing a deal that turned out to be less amazing than the sales pitch had lead you to believe? Perhaps this was because the external packaging didn’t match the internal components. Have you ever felt this way specifically about following Jesus? While scripture tells us that following Jesus will “set us free,” it’s easy to feel like we’re all still stuck in the same sinful circumstances that have held us back for years. So what is there to do? Paul writes about the process of shedding our “old self” and renewing our mind. But this isn’t a process that can take place in isolation. It requires cooperation with God and honesty community with other people.
