6-Week Challenge to Test Jesus
Ed gives the example of a Cheeto mouse, as he challenges us take life head on, instead of living in passive "comfort."
During their brutal training, Navy SEAL's learn the motto, "embrace the suck." Life does suck and we need to face those problems. Jesus invites the heavy laden to come to Him and find rest, but first you have to admit you have that load.
Ed relates to toddlers, musicians, Disney movies, desserts, and chicken-leg as he gets us thinking: Is our life is filling us up with enduring satisfaction, or we are feeding temporary gratifications?
Rest is not absence of chaos, but trust that God's got you amidst that chaos.
Ed relates us to Jean Valjean from the classic book Les Miserables.
God wants us to wrestle with Him and learn through difficult experiences that we can trust Him.
