In a world of immediate gratification and instant results, self-control seems like such a foreign concept. Yet, the power of God works in our lives to bring self-control. So how do we get there? How do we deny the reckless indulgence of the world around us, and reflect God's selfless and others-focussed attitude? Aimee and Jo talk to Jonquil Burn, Riverlife's LifeCentre Co-ordinator, about how to anchor our lives in the power of God to let self-control bear its fruit.

Jo and Aimee talk with Barry Klopper, who's a family lawyer, and he sees the lack of goodness in people's lives every day and has first-hand experience of what goodness can do when people are in chaos
