Stuck in habits and vices you hate? Speaker and bestselling author J.P. Pokluda knows 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, he explains, unpacks, and expands on the age-old virtues Scripture tells us to pursue. Far from being restrictive, these God-given goals for living free you to love and live as you wish you would.

The enemy comes along and sets it in front of you, and just says, \u201cHere, take and eat. Why wouldn\u2019t you?\u201d Like he does with Jesus when He's in the desert; he says, \u201cWhy don\u2019t You eat this bread? Look, all of this could be Yours!\u201d He\u2019s still running the same offense.

I think, as long as we\u2019re under the sun\u2014until we\u2019re in that glorified state, until we\u2019re in the presence of God\u2014that temptation never goes away. There\u2019s always going to be the desires of the flesh [and] the enemy who lures us with the things of the world. -- Jonathan Pokluda
