Courey,

Some view resolutions as unbiblical because:
1. There’s often no real desire to change – people make the same resolutions year after year and continually fail.
2. They are often attempted within our own power, not God’s power.

I think we have to be careful to look at the motivation behind making resolutions. Are we making them to become more like Christ or are we making them because everybody’s doing it?

We also have to look at who receives the glory if we keep those resolutions. God? Or us?

If you do some Googling you’ll find Christians take positions on both sides. Definitely great discussion points, but ones we need to be aware of!

I don’t want you all to be caught in the crossfires unaware if a dispute about resolutions erupts! 😉
