Why Do I Still Sin Even When I’m a Christian?

Why Do I Still Sin Even When I’m a Christian?
  • Updated Jun 18, 2024

If we have a relationship with Jesus, why do we still suffer?
Why do we still sin?
What does the process of "sanctification" actually look like?
In this short teaching video, Dr. Joel Muddamalle answers these questions through the lens of the popular verse: 

"I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate." - Romans 7:15 (NLT)

Deepen your understanding of the names of Jesus and receive prompted prayers to help you connect with the God who knows exactly what you need with this beautifully designed resource, Names of the Messiah.
Living in the peace we want doesn’t come from the absence of pain and chaos, but by knowing Jesus is with us in those things. If you’re longing for this kind of soul-settled assurance, join Dr. Joel Muddamalle in the pages of his new book, The Hidden Peace: Finding True Security, Strength, and Confidence Through Humility.

Yeah, it’s a thing. Pre-order his book The Hidden Peace: Finding the Security, Strength, and Confidence Through Humilithere.
