🎙️ Episode 4: Discipline, Desire, and the Daily Remodel

In this episode, Brother John Meador speaks candidly about the difference between having an experience with God and cultivating a lasting relationship with Him. Drawing from Galatians 5 and Ephesians 4:23, he explores the nature of the flesh, the necessity of spiritual discipline, and the daily choices that shape our walk with Christ.

🕊️ Key themes:

• Why transformation requires more than a single spiritual moment
• The 18 works of the flesh listed in Galatians—and how they manifest in daily life
• The power of morning disciplines: prayer, Bible study, and devotionals
• How renewing the mind is a spiritual “remodel” that reshapes behavior and desire
• Personal stories of growth, correction, and wisdom passed down from Brother John’s father

📖 Scripture references:

• Galatians 5:19–21
• Ephesians 4:23 (“Be renewed in the spirit of your mind”)
• Colossians 3:1–3

💬 “It’s not the devotional—it’s the discipline. It’s not just the experience—it’s the pursuit.”
