Why Do I Keep Failing When I Try So Hard?

Oftentimes we want to do what's right, but when it demands more of us than we want to give, that’s when we succumb to temptation. In this message, Dr. Stanley explains that we're responsible for our choices and it is our incomplete repentance and our inadequate view of our identity in Christ that causes our downfall. But thankfully we can find the strength and victory to overcome our circumstances when we rely on God.
