## Resource

By and large, success in life is not happenstance. There may be a few cases that seem to be exceptions to this rule. But if so, that’s the exception and not the rule. Generally, people who win in life determine beforehand that they are going to succeed in life. So, with 2026 before us, Frank King shares some biblical pointers for success in this new year. Frank draws four practical points from chapter 9 of Paul’s letter to the church at Corinth. One thing he stresses is the importance of temperance or self-control. Things won’t always go the way we want them to. We must not, however, become frustrated and throw in the towel. Rather, we must maintain self-control and diligently work at our goals. A modern definition for insanity is repeatedly doing the same things but hoping for different results. Sad but true, that’s exactly what some people will do this new year. They will go into this New Year doing the same things they did in the old year and wonder why the New Year feels just like the old year. But application of the points shared in this episode will chart a different path for success in 2026.
