Guarding your Heart in a Toxic World (Holy Habits 3 - Pastor Timothy)

Week 3 of our Holy Habits series — Pastor Timothy pulls Psalm 1 apart and gives a very practical, very hopeful roadmap for growing in Christ instead of drifting into spiritual stagnation. This message names the sin of unrealized potential, explains why we naturally chase growth (and hate decay), and offers concrete rhythms to “be the tree” planted by streams of water: guard your way, root yourself in Scripture, welcome God’s watch, and overflow with fruit.You’ll hear a clear reading of Psalm 1 and an easy-to-remember framework (the “Here We Grow” breakdown) plus down-to-earth tips for meditation (the Heb. hagah—chewing on Scripture), memorization, and setting your mind on what’s eternal. Pastoral, practical, and full of pastoral wisdom — a sermon to help you build habits that actually shape your soul.
