b'In "Life Hurts God Heals" Chris creates moments of reflection on our relationship with Jesus.\\xa0 In this episode Chris is digging deeper into the issue of why spiritual habits, or disciplines are so difficult to install in our daily life with God.\\xa0 Most every Christian wants to live the transformed life of the new nature, but they are often confronted with the immense strength of old worldly habits and attitudes embedded in our former human nature.\\xa0 This is so frustrating!\\xa0 We can become discouraged when pastors talk about the \\u201cvictorious Christian life\\u201d when inside of us we know we are going home filled with lousy attitude, a sailor\\u2019s mouth, or a heart filled with pride, lust, anxiety or resentment which we just can\\u2019t seem to shake.\\xa0 Frankly, beating ourselves up each week with shame and guilt over our failures does little to help us become the individual God has in mind for us to be.\\xa0 What can we do about this?\\xa0 Let\\u2019s take a fresh look from the biblical scriptures and see if we can\\u2019t come up with a better understanding and approach to living a life that makes us smile because we know God is smiling at us.\\xa0 Let\\u2019s correct the confusion and begin building our lives in the strength of God\\u2019s Spirit and the beauty of His grace.
