Everyone likes to win. It’s fun to win a game or a race. But how do you train for life? How do you train to win at things like marriage, health, or your relationship with God? We’re talking about it in this message.

In Pastor Craig’s new book, The Power to Change, you’ll learn highly practical, biblical, and doable strategies so you can get out of the cycle of trying and transform your life.

    What are some differences between “trying” and “training”?
  • This is the message I needed to hear. I'm a Christian who has been trying to overcome Lustful thoughts but always losing. Now I'm a Christian who is training to serve Jesus today and for the rest of my life.
  • Whoever reading this comment, I really hope you find peace and strength to live through the day. Whatever you're going through right now, I promise it'll be okay.

    You won't believe it. I saved this video to watch a couple of days ago. I got distracted from this and that and my prayers have been "I am trying, God" I just started reading the Bible just recently. I started with the New Testament. I literally just got to 1 Corinthians 9 TODAY. Today morning, I got there and I read about Paul, training not trying. It was my prayer in the morning. And later in the day today, after all the distractions, I finally sat down to watch this video. How more can God convince me that he is ALWAYS speaking to me? Praise be to God Almighty, Amen.

    I needed to hear this and so did my son who’s away in the military. He’s homesick and I was struggling to find the words for him. THANK YOU.
  • The question at the end was spot on, Based on who you wnat to become, how are you going to train? Pastor Craig always delivers the right message at the right time.

    I absolutely love this message, going through a separation and trying to get myself on the right path , I'm not trying , I'm training! ❤️
  • Don't try, just do it. Nothing is stopping you from changing habits but your lack of self control.
  • Run to win 🙏 - We all have to run, so that we can “win” - and the win being, being able to spend the afterlife with Him forever. But the good thing about this race, is that if you Try your hardest and actually put the work into the race, no matter what place you get, you will always win with God 🙏
  • Love from Nigeria🇳🇬 Pastor Craig. You’ve been a blessing to me.
