If your faith isn't making the devil lose sleep, you're doing it wrong.
Remember, there's a crackhead out there hustling harder for their next fix than you are for your eternal crown.
How's that for a wake-up call?
1. The 10-Year Spiritual Bender
• "It tastes sweeter when it takes 10 years." - Zach Pogrob
• Noah's century-long boat-building marathon
Proverbs 13:12: "Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life."
Are you building an ark or just floating on a lukewarm kiddie pool of faith?
2. Holy Addiction: Creating Your Way to Sanity
• "Creation cures anxiety." - Zach Pogrob
• Adam's divine prescription: Naming animals and tending Eden
• Paul's obsessive letter-writing from prison
Ecclesiastes 2:24: "There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour."
What if you craved God's work like a junkie craves their next hit?
3. Embrace the Divine Crazy
• "If you don't want a normal life, don't always expect to feel normal." - Zach Pogrob
• John the Baptist: Eating locusts and wild honey
• Jesus: Homeless and hanging out with society's rejects
1 Peter 2:9: "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people."
Normal is for pagans. Are you peculiar enough for God?
