And yet, there is also something in us that resists change, clings to comfort, and gets easily discouraged. The Christian life is not static. It is not a museum where we admire what God once did. It is a journey, a race, a pursuit. In this message we learn this lesson: To make spiritual progress we are invited to add choice and effort to God\u2019s work of change in us. God does the changing \u2014 but He invites us to cooperate.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2mWh_UABx_0?si=Gdxa4p0FkopHW8Gp\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_750\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-2171-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waggonermedia.com\/podcast\/press_on\/press_on1.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.waggonermedia.com\/podcast\/press_on\/press_on1.mp3\">https:\/\/www.waggonermedia.com\/podcast\/press_on\/press_on1.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.waggonermedia.com\/podcast\/press_on\/press_on1.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/www.podcast.waggonermedia.com\/?powerpress_pinw=2171-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.waggonermedia.com\/podcast\/press_on\/press_on1.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"press_on1.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.podcast.waggonermedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/ltwtPodcastCA.jpg?mt=2&amp;ls=1\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_itunes\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe on Apple Podcasts\" rel=\"nofollow\">Apple Podcasts<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/0f43U4lub1FDTFo9h37vc2\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_spotify\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe on Spotify\" rel=\"nofollow\">Spotify<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iheart.com\/podcast\/256-waggonermedia-podcast-30955368\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_iheart\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe on iHeartRadio\" rel=\"nofollow\">iHeartRadio<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/subscribebyemail.com\/www.podcast.waggonermedia.com\/?feed=podcast\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe by Email\" rel=\"nofollow\">Email<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.podcast.waggonermedia.com\/?feed=podcast\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.podcast.waggonermedia.com\/?page_id=1598\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_more\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"More\" rel=\"nofollow\">More<\/a><\/p><!--powerpress_player-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is something inside every believer that longs to grow \u2014 to move forward \u2014 to become more like Jesus.
