In The Thing Beneath the Thing , former Willow Creek Community Church lead teaching pastor Steve Carter asks the simple question, "How is life working for you?" He knows that potholes exist and that the longer we live disconnected from answering this question, the more we will fill those holes with harmful choices.
But before long, the hole is back, waiting to catch us off-guard, which in the end creates even more permanent damage.
What do we do? Usually we find a quick fix, filling the hole with activities and even addictions disguised as culturally acceptable life choices.
We all have potholes that have been formed by pain, trauma, or choices that we\'ve made.
The same is true of our lives.
And left untended, potholes can evolve into sinkholes that endanger entire roadway systems.
Besides the uncomfortable bump, they can create permanent damage to vehicles.
Every driver knows the importance of avoiding potholes when navigating a route.
