JT Wax is a Chaplain at Fort Liberty. Recently, their chapel finished a study on Colossians, and in this episode John got to have a conversation with JT about why we struggle to focus on Jesus. There are so many "shiny things" that the enemy puts before us - both bad things and good things - that distract us from looking at Jesus.



JT and John explore what some of those are, why we are so prone to get distracted, and how we can combat the enemy in this area.
