Kyle Thompson // A Time to Break Down, and a Time to Build Up

Ecclesiastes 3 teaches us that for everything there is a season, including times of breaking down and building up. We explore why accepting God's "breaking down" process is essential before He can rebuild us into something greater.

• Most men are comfortable with the grind only when they remain in control
• God designed life with necessary cycles of breaking down and building up
• Breaking someone down reveals what they're truly made of when tested
• The "burn it down and walk away" approach removes barriers to spiritual growth
• Testing people to their limits helps determine if they can be relied upon
• Without breaking down, we cannot know what needs to be built up
• It's better to volunteer for God's breaking process than have Him do it without your consent
• God's ultimate purpose in breaking us down is to prepare us for His calling

If you want to help equip other men for the fight, share this podcast around and leave us a five-star rating and review.
