Description

That thing you keep trying to control instead of actually dealing with it? The habit, anger, or pattern you’ve managed to keep mostly hidden?


Pastor Matt gets real about why our self-control strategies backfire and what it actually means to “put off the old self.”


This isn’t about trying harder or summoning more willpower.


Drawing from Colossians 3, he unpacks the difference between managing our struggles and actually putting them to death. Whether it’s anger that explodes at bad moments, words that cut too deep, or just living like you’re still the person you used to be.


Matt shares what it looks like to stop caging your sin and start killing it.


Plus how to wake up each day and put on your new identity in Christ.


For anyone tired of exhausting self-management cycles and ready for the freedom Jesus actually offers.
