How to overcome the habits that are stealing joy from your life
Our upside-down culture celebrates vice and undervalues virtue, leading us to feed the wrong habits while we allow life-giving practices to die. It's no wonder we feel empty, exhausted, and directionless.
There's a better, more fulfilling way to live, and it doesn't involve looking inside yourself for the answers--because that's not where you'll find them. With his signature wit and wisdom, Jonathan "JP" Pokluda helps you
● unpack the age-old virtues we're told to pursue in Scripture
● understand how these God-given goals free us to love and live as we wish we would
● redefine what's important to you and reclaim a life of virtue
Practicing virtues is not just something you do--it's something done in you, slowly but surely transforming you into the person you were meant to be all along.
