Why Is Obeying God So Simple and Yet So Incredibly Hard? (David Gibson)

Have you ever felt convicted by James 1:22?

"But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves."

How many of us have read that verse and felt the pangs of conscience? Knowing how often we do in fact content ourselves with merely hearing God's word, but not actually obeying it. And how many of us have asked ourselves or our Heavenly Father, why? Why do we still struggle so much even as Christians? In our interview today, David Gibson talks about this constant struggle that we all face and what it reveals about our sinful hearts, our theology, and our understanding of the Christian life.
