E032 Understanding Backsliding - a podcast by Spiritual Tea Podcast

A study was conducted last year that showed only 8 percent of people actually achieve their New Year’s resolution goals, while approximately 80% fail to keep their New Year’s resolutions. The reason being is due to reverting back to what we are familiar or comfortable with.
 
Have you heard the biblical term backsliding? Backsliding means to go backward spiritually or falling away. Backsliding is when a person regresses back to their old habits; habits that turn away from God to chase their own desires.
 
What is the cause of backsliding? Desires; the meaning of desire is to wish for or want something stronger. I’ve previously stated, desire and wish are the opposite of faith. Desire and wish can be accompanied by hurt and pain. Backsliding hurts, it hurts internally (our inner-being) and externally (others).
