Are you trying to grow spiritually but still feel stuck? In this episode, Pastors Jimmy and Irene Rollins share how to love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.
So Good Moments:
- Pastor Jimmy and Irene had their darkest time eight years ago when she was struggling with a secret alcohol addiction. She’s now nearly eight years sober.
- It’s easy to focus on doing the right things but to forget the practical side of God’s Word—and the light He wants to shine in our lives.
- Pastor Jimmy ballooned to 420 pounds due to emotional weight he hadn’t dealt with. Once he got emotionally and Spiritually healthy, he started to exercise and stopped using food as medication.
- Pastor Irene used alcohol to medicate and calm her nervous system. Once she detoxed from the alcohol in rehab, she started hearing God’s voice loud and clear. God’s Word became so loud to her in that season.
- Build your hobbies around things that keep you holy. Don’t just look for entertainment—develop a hobby that lets you recreate yourself.
