Challenge Accepted, Part 4: Better Habits // Forrest Jenan

A 100-mph fastball reaches home plate in four-tenths of a second — too fast to think through. Hitters don't rise to that moment. They fall back on thousands of hours of repetition. In Part 4 of Challenge Accepted, Forrest Jenan explores what it looks like to train before life comes at us fast — and why the habits Jesus practiced were never about proving how spiritual we are, but about becoming like him. In This Teaching Why pressure moments reveal what's been trained into you, not what you decide in the moment What it means that "everyone is somebody's disciple" The difference between spiritual formation as an event versus a process Why the habits of Jesus — prayer, rest, scripture, generosity — are training, not religious homework A simple daily rhythm anyone can start: quiet, scripture, prayer Why the goal is always faith expressing itself through love, not private religious performance Scriptures Referenced: Luke 5:16 Luke 6:40 1 Timothy 4:8 2 Corinthians 3:18 Galatians 5:6
