Why Self-Control Leads to Greater Joy

Why Self-Control Leads to Greater Joy

Dr. Edward Sri

Temperance might appear to limit our freedom, but it actually orders our desires, making room for the deeper joys God created us to experience. Dr. Sri explains the sin of gluttony and shares how fasting and self-control are pathways to freedom and joy in Christ. 

Shownotes

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
