Jesus - Feeding the Right Wolf: Walking in the Spirit in 2026

As we step into a brand-new year, the choices we make — both small and significant — shape the direction of our lives.

In this New Year episode of The Jesus Effect, we explore a powerful illustration often called “The Tale of Two Wolves” and uncover the biblical truth behind it. Scripture reminds us that while our old way of life has been defeated at the cross, the desires of the flesh still compete for our attention — and the Holy Spirit continually calls us to walk in the new life we’ve been given in Christ.

Through God’s Word and practical application, this episode invites us to reflect on what we are feeding each day — our old nature or the Spirit of God within us.

You’ll be encouraged to:

• Understand the spiritual battle Scripture describes
• Make intentional, Spirit-led choices in the new year
• Develop habits that help you walk in victory
• Embrace community and grow alongside other believers

As we begin 2026, may we learn to feed the Spirit, walk closely with Jesus, and live out the life He has called us to.
