Reclaiming what it means to be Christ-followers, by implementing the principles and practices He taught us, will bring about lasting life-change and spiritual offspring. DEM seeks to educate, inspire, equip, and train everyday followers of Christ to adhere to the will and ways of God our Father, thus becoming more like Christ in our inner person and outer practice.

Feel Better But Don’t Become Better?

May 1, 2015Dale Ebel

“Since everything around us is going to be destroyed like this, what holy and godly lives you should live,” – 2 Peter 3:11 NLT

God is not a drug, and He certainly does not create experiences and emotions that make us feel better but not become better.

Being conformed into the image of Christ (Sanctification) is the destination for every disciple of Jesus Christ, and getting to that shore will require transformation of our inner lives (Romans 8:29; 2 Corinthians 3:17-18). This is why it can so confidently be said that God is concerned with our character even over our comfort. He is not disinterested in our comfort but transformation is, and always will be, the main thing.

In Christ,

Dale
