What do LeBron James, Bronny’s NBA journey, and a heated moment with Stephen A. Smith have to do with your faith? More than you'd think.

In a recent interview, LeBron recalled a statement he made to his son that stopped us in our tracks: "If you're in love with something, you fall in love with the process, not just the outcome." That one quote sparked a conversation that took us everywhere—from the grind of personal growth with Christ to the beauty (and difficulty) of loving others through their mess.

This week, we’re talking about the process—the sanctification journey with Jesus that shapes who we’re becoming, not just where we’re going. And we’re anchoring it all in Romans 5:3-5, where suffering, endurance, character, and hope are more than just a progression—they’re a promise.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the middle, questioning whether the struggle is worth it, this one’s for you.
