In his book, \\u201cImproving\\u201d, Stewart Briscoe writes, \\u201cAs the hard business of living takes its toll it is the spiritual dimension of life that wears out first.\\u201d How do we stop this from happening? The bottom line of life is captured by Dallas Willard, \\u201cWhat God gets out of our lives and indeed what we get out of our lives is simply the person we become.\\u201d The 30s and 40s are years of becoming and in this episode we look at four workshop areas that God uses to shape our hearts and lives \\u2013 marriage, parenting, career and material possessions. Our faith will be stretched by life\\u2019s challenges and even disappointments and failures, but it doesn\\u2019t have to be stretched to breaking, but stretched to strengthening.
