When dealing with problems we can either lop off the branches of issues or we can put the axe at the root of the issue.

Exposing ourselves to all the right doctrine and right teaching in the world doesn’t amount to a hill of beans if we aren’t willing to put on the type of humility that it takes to walk it out.
