Episode description

When you wake up and realize that everything you believed about something has been a lie or is false, the incredible toll on your psyche is a concept in social psychology called Cognitive Dissonance.

Cognitive Dissonance occurs when our behavior is in direct conflict with our deep seated beliefs.

As we challenge our beliefs, as we look to life, and try to determine what is true and what is not, when we do this absent God and absent God‘s word, we can end up anywhere.

Oftentimes, these very events, can actually put your life on course. These very events, can lead you to ask the hard questions.

If those hard questions take you to a scripture like John 3:16, and all you read is… “For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him, should not perish, but she’ll have eternal life.”… and if that’s a new beginning of a new journey for you, then I promise you this: That those words in that book, talking about the man Jesus, God incarnate Jesus, if you believe in that, He will never let you down.
