Laying the Groundwork: The Incomplete Guide to Foundational Repair
We have to build on our foundation in a way that we need to imitate Christ, because people are looking, people are watching you, people watching me, and they want to see if you really mean what you say.
Have you ever wondered what it takes to build a solid foundation in life? In this episode of The Hope Over Coffee Podcast, Jared Ogea tackles this very question, using 1 Corinthians 11:1 as a springboard. He dives into the concept of Christ as our firm foundation and challenges listeners to reflect on who they are following in their spiritual journey. Are you imitating Christ, and is there someone you look up to who embodies this walk of faith?
Jared doesn't just stop there; he also flips the mirror back on us. Who's watching you? Your kids, friends, and family are all taking cues from your actions. Do your daily habits align with Christ's teachings? Jared encourages us to adopt the discipline of an athlete, focusing on spiritual practices like reading scripture, praying, and fellowship. Through his own stories and biblical wisdom, he offers practical advice for those struggling with addiction and seeking a life of purpose.
This episode is a heartfelt invitation to examine your spiritual foundation and take steps toward a more disciplined, Christ-centered life.
