from Truly a Masterpiece Podcast · host Craig Walker
Send us Fan Mailf you’ve ever thought, “Why does the Christian life still feel like such a struggle?”—this episode is for you.A lot of Christians are confused about what actually happened when they got saved. We hear phrases like “brand-new creation” and assume that means the battle with the flesh should disappear completely. But when temptation, fear, insecurity, and struggle remain, many people quietly begin to wonder: “Maybe this works for everybody else…just not for me.”In this episode, Craig helps remove the confusion surrounding salvation by unpacking the difference between the flesh, the soul, and the spirit—and why understanding that difference changes everything.You’ll learn: • What did—and did not—happen when you were born again • Why the flesh and Spirit war against each other • What it really means to be “made new” in Christ • Why spiritual things can feel difficult to trust • How your spirit now communes with God’s Spirit • Why walking by faith brings life and peaceThis conversation brings clarity to Galatians 5, and Romans 8 and the inner battle every believer experiences.If you’ve been frustrated in your walk with God, this episode may help you finally understand why—and show you how to move forward with greater confidence, peace, and freedom.Time stamp01:10 Why so many Christians feel confused after getting saved01:55 What salvation does not mean02:22 Understanding the flesh, soul, and spirit03:38 The night vision illustration04:49 What it really means to be saved05:36 Why you must be born again06:42 Pulling it all together06:54 The battle between the flesh and the spirit07:26 Why the battle always comes back to faith Connect with Craig @CraigWalkerCaochingFree eBook: 5 Lies Christian Men Believe That Keep Them Stuck https://craigwalkercoaching.com/5liesConnect with Craig @CraigWalkerCaochingFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/craigwalkercoachingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/craigwalkercoachingLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craig-walker-1816367/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@craig.walker.coachYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@craigwalker9197Get a copy of Craig's Book SHAMELESS The Life You Were Born to Love https://amzn.to/44vldsQSign up for the Safe Husband Three-Day Free Workshop: Secure Men Make Safe Homes https://craigwalkercoaching.com/resourcesJoin the Masterpiece Brotherhood Men's Group: https://craigwalkercoaching.com/brotherhood
