Challenge Accepted, Part 4: Better Habits // Forrest Jenan

A 100-mph fastball reaches home plate in four-tenths of a second — too fast to think through. Hitters don't rise to that moment. They fall back on thousands of hours of repetition.

In Part 4 of Challenge Accepted, Forrest Jenan explores what it looks like to train before life comes at us fast — and why the habits Jesus practiced were never about proving how spiritual we are, but about becoming like him.

In This Teaching

• Why pressure moments reveal what's been trained into you, not what you decide in the moment
• What it means that "everyone is somebody's disciple"
• The difference between spiritual formation as an event versus a process
• Why the habits of Jesus — prayer, rest, scripture, generosity — are training, not religious homework
• A simple daily rhythm anyone can start: quiet, scripture, prayer
• Why the goal is always faith expressing itself through love, not private religious performance
