The Elimination of Sloth
We remember the life of Dr. John MacArthur who passed away on July 14. Then we turn to our topic. Seth Troutt has these words of encouragement for young men: Don't be a sluggard. Don't be lazy. He believes the inability or unwillingness to work hard is corrosive, lethal, and tempting. How is sloth ruining the lives of the next generation? And how do we ruthlessly eliminate it? Don't miss the conversation on Chris Fabry Live.
