But this is not simply a book about having more discipline so you can live your dreams. The Battle and the Build is about pushing back the chaos and bringing about order to your life. It is about driving the evil dictator out of your heart and establishing the true King so you can
overcome the deceptive strategies of sin aimed specifically at your weaknesses that bend your behaviors to broken ends,
stop giving your heart to aimless affections and learn how to intentionally orient your life and loves around a God who cares for you,
recognize that under your misdirected affections and motivations is a deep and good longing for God, and
discover methods of overcoming personal shortcomings that do not rely on shame-based motivation.
The writer of Hebrews declares we are called to “cast off all that hinders” and “run the race marked out for us.” We are called into the action! In our race we must both flee some things and pursue others. It’s not about being free of all struggles. Rather, we have been empowered to struggle well.”
