## Resource

When I walked away from Jesus, there were very preventable things Jesus outlined that I wasn't practicing to preserve the connection he paid for with his blood I wasn't reading His word and meditating on the scriptures to renew my mind with the mind of Christ. I wasn't praying daily out of devotion to preserve and deepen my connection. I wasn't looking at Jesus's model of deliverance and being delievered from demonic oppression in my life. I felt guilty when I couldn't get out of sin cycles -- that God was disappointed in me because I was disappointed in myself. But what if someone had discipled me early on, showing me what it meant to walk with Jesus at an intimate level? What if I realized that my relationship with Jesus was a relational process of transformation and not a perfection I needed to obtain? In this week's podcast, we go into the things I wish I had known when all hell broke loose after I got saved. And that nothing was WRONG. Instagram: @christablacksingh
