Don't forget to join us tomorrow for Chapter 6! It's been powerful stuff going over this book and getting equipped with tools to help us fight anxiety! The link is on our calendar. 10:30am EST / 9:30am CST / 7:30am PST Chapter 5 Replay is Up! We discussed: Most people believe change is just a decision. You decide you’re going to stop worrying, break the habit, get disciplined, and this time it’s going to stick. But then a stressful moment hits, a random thought enters your head, and before you realize it you’re right back in the same mental rut you thought you left behind. That’s the question we started wrestling with in Chapter 5: Why does this keep happening even when we genuinely want to change? It turns out most people are trying to fix the visible behavior while the real issue is buried much deeper. We unpacked a strange example involving banana trees that refuse to die no matter how many times you cut them down. But that’s only where the conversation starts. The chapter then shifts toward something far more powerful: intentionally digging what Pastor Craig calls a trench of truth. And that’s where the Panama Canal story completely changes the perspective. Because carving a canal through mountains, disease, and impossible conditions wasn’t quick or easy. But once it was finished, the path that once took ships 13,000 miles suddenly became 50 miles. The replay is now live inside the course, and if you’ve ever wondered why certain thoughts, fears, or habits keep circling back no matter how determined you are to change them…this one is worth watching.
