<itunes:subtitle> Lesson #7 Overcoming Lust:Embracing God's Loves: Discipleship Level 2 - Reaching Beyond Mediocrity</itunes:subtitle>
 <description>Too many Christians for too long have hung around in a pit of despair and retreat than have seen and displayed the power of God in their lives. Lusts have become so common among some believers that it is considered normal. Not! The Lord shows us how we must overcome such lusts in order to live out the Christ-like life of devotion to God and love toward one another. Lusts, after all, is just another form of selfism. This lesson on 'Embracing God's Love, Overcoming Lust' is the seventh in a series on "Reaching Beyond Mediocrity."  </description>
