Finding Freedom 8 - How Change Actually Happens

The Big Idea: Real change is possible and it always happens from the inside-out.

Jeremiah 1:4-12

The path from prison to freedom is always the same: 1. VISION about what life could be like. 2. Someone has to do for me what I CANNOT DO ON MY OWN. 3. I have to make a DECISION that I intent to do something. 4. I have to START DOING IT

Galatians 5:1 1 Samuel 10:6-9 Isaiah 61:1-3

Jesus is not into BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION. Jesus is about SPIRITUAL FORMATION!

“A Spirit-driven process of forming our inner world in such a way that it becomes like the inner being of Christ himself.”

Spiritual formation is not a PASSIVE process.

John 15:1-16 Galatians 5:22-26

How We Change: • VISION • INTENTION • STRATEGY
