Ask Y

After watching the Olympics, I was inspired by the level of tenacity and discipline the athletes displayed. As I sat and reveled at their performances, it dawned on me that in order to get to this level of competition not only does it require skill and awesome ability, it also requires disciple. Everything boils down to discipline. John MacArthur makes a great point when he says, "Why is discipline important? Discipline teaches us to operate by principle rather than desire. Saying no to our impulses (even the ones that are not inherently sinful) puts us in control of our appetites rather than vice versa. It deposes our lust and permits truth, virtue, and integrity to rule our minds instead.” This podcast will discuss the power of discipline.
