Show Notes
Our character traits fall into three categories:
- The ones that are easily changeable with minimal effort.
- The ones that can be changed, but it requires much more intense and concerted effort because they are much more deeply rooted.
- The character flaws that are not changeable; they are hardwired and fixed in place.
What do we do about those unchangeable flaws? Is there a method to maneuver around them? Are we supposed to come to terms with them? Are we condemned to suffer as a result of them? Our pursuit is perfection. And perfection is even possible notwithstanding very unpleasant and very unchangeable flaws. One method was pioneered by a brilliant and righteous woman named Keturah.
