Accept My Part | Pastor John Eaton | Relate Series | 9/28/2025

Why do we keep doing the very things we hate? Paul wrestled with this same question in Romans 7, and if we’re honest, so do we. We want to do good, but sin trips us up. We make promises, but our flesh craves shortcuts. We even create conflict just so we can justify sin.

In this message, we uncover the lie that sin will somehow work for us—even though it’s never worked for anyone else in history. We’ll explore why we can’t trust our own hearts, why God’s commands are necessary, and how the RELATE process helps us break free from predictable patterns of destruction.

If you’ve ever asked, “Why do I keep messing up?”—this sermon will give you clarity, hope, and the good news that Jesus Christ is the One who sets us free.
