Quiet Questions for the Soul

What if the fact that you’re still in the battle doesn’t mean you’re losing? Sometimes we’re so focused on wanting the struggle to disappear that we miss what God has already strengthened in us. In Episode 5 of Behind Enemy Lines, we return to Ephesians 6 and take a closer look at one simple instruction Paul repeats: stand. We’ll talk about the difference between standing and striving, why resistance doesn’t always mean the struggle stops, and how spiritual growth can show up in the way someth...
