Frequently Asked Questions

Is it really possible to start over?

In Christ, absolutely. 2 Corinthians 5:17 doesn't say 'some things' become new — it says 'all things.' Your identity, your standing before God, your spiritual record — all made new. While consequences of past actions may remain, your identity and future in Christ are completely renewed.

How do I stop dwelling on the past?

Isaiah 43:18-19 gives the key: 'Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!' This is an active choice, not a passive feeling. Each time your mind returns to past failures, redirect it to God's promise of newness. Replace regret with anticipation of what God will do next.
