Why Can't I Get It Together?: Kick Unrealistic Expectations to the Curb and Rest in God's Truth

We’re trying to “get it together” in areas we have no control over. We keep trying, but we’ll never move the needle to a better future because it has nothing to do with us or anything we can do. 

You don’t always have to give in to what the world, your family, or your own self declares is the way things are “supposed” to be. God desires goodness and joy for us. God, Jesus, and the Spirit went to great lengths to offer you and me the best good news ever. 

In Why Can’t I Get It Together?, Jamie Ivey, host of The Happy Hour podcast, shares how to 

• Define the reality of your current circumstances
• Ponder the areas of your life that are out of control
• Stop self-shame
• Create better expectations for yourself
• Move forward in an effort to chase holiness 

Jamie guides us through six areas of our lives that are affecting our perception of God’s love in our realities. Dig deep into God’s Word to see what it says about why we keep sinning, how to stop, and what God feels about us in the midst of it all.
