18. This is What Happens When You Stop Chasing Fake Rabbits | John Ortberg
Social media loves to make promises. Promises about optimizations, quick fixes, the perfect skin, the perfect parenting hacks, and on and on. These promises are tempting, but the problem is that social media rarely delivers on the promises it makes. This keeps us consuming more and more looking for the next best hack. We arrange our lives around this pursuit, only to find out—sometimes painfully—they’re not real.

16. Cancel Culture and Kindness | John Ortberg
John invites us to consider how our digital lives often differ from kindness and tend toward condemnation. All one needs do is get online and look at the Subtweets and group chats that exclude others. There are endless examples of passive-aggressive stories and soft blocks. We’ve been trained to cancel people but Jesus did something different. He didn’t cancel people, he canceled sin.

15. Why Kindness is the Highest form of Freedom | John Ortberg
Happy Fourth of July from Become New! Today marks not only a holiday, but also a shift in direction for us. As we sat with the title, You Should Get Out More, for the past few weeks, we noticed something felt off. It’s a single word, but it makes all the difference. We should get out more. As we explore this topic, know that we aren’t pointing the finger your way; we’re learning these concepts right along with you. So together, let’s get out more, and let’s dive into today’s topic: kindness.

14. The Pacing of Spiritual Formation | John Ortberg
The word of the day is patience. The kind that reshapes your soul over time. A long faithfulness. As we continue You Should Get Out More, John invites us into something countercultural: living as pilgrims, not tourists. Tourists pick their destinations, stay as long as it’s fun, and move on when they lose interest. Pilgrims, though? They’re going somewhere. They’re going to God and the path for getting there is through Jesus. Digital life trains us to expect everything instantly: food, updates, approval, progress. But the fruit of the Spirit, especially patience, grows at a much slower speed than scrolling.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.📲 For daily alerts, text the word BECOME to the number 855-888-0444Join the conversation in our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1CnqywVp9s/John's new book STEPS is out!
