Status Updates From Overcoming Your Shadow Miss...

To say it again: character formation is absolutely fundamental to our well-being, but it's not glamorous. So often- in our work, in our lives, even in our churches- we think "man, there's so much going on, we can't take the time to work on 'character'." We can do really impressive-looking things, but what we take into eternity is who we become.

If you don't develop the character to support your gifts, they will actually become destructive to you. Your shadow mission will win out and your gifts will crush you. It's only a matter of time. You don't have a choice about what gifts you're given. But you are given a choice of what character you will build.
