In this episode of *Reverberate*, Pastor Jed, Pastor Isaias, and Jason unpack the struggle of sudden temptation through the lens of Proverbs 7. Though temptation may feel impulsive, they point out that the fall is often the result of a longer buildup—where spiritual reflexes are shaped by daily choices long before the moment of collapse. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing and avoiding the early stages of temptation, cultivating habits of wisdom, and strengthening your heart with God’s Word. They also explain how the gospel breaks cycles of regret and failure. Rather than trying harder to be good enough, the path forward begins with resting in Christ’s finished work and letting His love fuel wise, practical steps. True change comes not from fear or self-righteousness, but from knowing you are already deeply loved.
