This episode is for people who are trying to get better, who are really seeking to excel, but who fall short of that.  I do.  Many people give up when things go poorly.  But those who are really in this war to win it, will not be stopped by a lost battle.  Some people avoid losing battles by quitting the war for growth.  We cannot do that!  Instead, we can use the pain of a single defeat to drive us to resilience and victory in the war!  Excelling in faith is a war against mediocrity and lethargy.  In that war you will have setbacks.  But we'll talk about why we don't give up and how to use defeats to our ultimate advantage!

• How to handle mistakes

• How to bounce back from disappointment

• How do I keep encouraged when things go wrong

• Why is it important that I keep fighting for spiritual growth

• How do I stay engaged in spiritual warfare for the spirit over the flesh
