Class Lessons
Overview of Why I Do What I Hate 12-lesson class:
Lesson 1: Why Do I Do That?
Just as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are three-in-one, you are created three-in-one, too—body, soul, and spirit. Have you ever wondered which of your three parts is the one that gets born again? Did you know that your soul is composed of your mind, will, and emotions? What are all these piece parts and how do they all work together? This lesson will explain your interrelated nature and reveal the part or parts responsible for the causing you to do the things that you hate.
Lesson 2: Battle for the Soul
What is the difference between walking in the spirit versus walking in the flesh? Many of us try to consistently work the works of God or speak the words of God. How is that working for you? Is your soul at rest in God’s peace? Do you find temptation to seek a ’false comfort’ sometimes? Here is an opportunity to gain understanding of the intricate works of your inner self and begin to discover how to gain victory over your flesh.
Lesson 3: Fear of Death
What is the key factor that moves your soul out of God’s peace? How does this happen? There is a battle for your soul! Who or what is winning? Something is pushing your soul out of peace. What is it? 1 John 4:18 provides a powerful clue to the key factor that torments you. Hebrews 2:14 elaborates further. Fear of death? Maybe that is the last thing you would have thought! You will be amazed to hear all the different forms of death that can threaten you. Before you think this doesn’t apply to your life, listen to Craig’s real life, transparent examples. You may be startled at this foundational truth.
Lesson 4: Love vs. Pride
What is the antidote to fear? LOVE! Love drives out fear of all kinds. Love also activates faith. In areas of your life where you know that you know that God loves you, you will operate in faith and trust in Him. Your flesh is subdued, inoperative in those areas. You walk in the Spirit. What can be done about other areas not yet filled with God’s love, the areas causing vulnerability to the operation of the flesh? In this lesson, you will find the compassionate, effective solution to resolving these remaining areas in your life.
Lesson 5: The Law of the Mind
How can you identify when you are walking in the Spirit and not in the flesh? What is the key to this victorious action? Sin has seeds within it. If sin is indulged—expressed or committed—it sows those seeds right back into your soul. There is a choice, though, a way to keep bad seeds out of your soul, to make sure you are walking in the spirit. The Apostle Paul explains how to make that right choice to operate in identification with your redeemed spirit instead of the flesh of your soul. Join Craig for a gaining vital understanding.
Lesson 6: Overcoming Anger
Anger is a warning system! It is an indicator of a deeper problem. When left unchecked, anger leads to foolish decisions, destroys relationships, harms your finances, and can even lead to disease. Perhaps worst of all, anger empowers others to rule over your life and your destiny…with your permission! Dive into this lesson to discover the surprising root of anger, the “deeper problem.” You will receive prayer for overcoming anger and begin to learn how to resolve sudden anger.
Lesson 7: The Right Way to Deal with Anger
It’s a cliff-hanger, waiting to discover the secret of how to resolve anger in your life. You already learned there are four methods of dealing with anger and that three of them don’t work. In this lesson, Craig reveals the one effective means of dealing with your anger. You may be quite surprised when you hear what this is, but it will be exciting to actually do it, to put it to the test. Practicing this method consistently will help you resolve specific instances of anger to help prevent damage in your life and the lives of those you love.
Lesson 8: The Root of Anger
You knew this was going to go deeper, didn’t you? While you have received a working triage solution to anger situations, there is still an underlying root to be identified, understood and healed. Are you aware that the Bible says God created you for glory and honor? Do you know the opposite emotion? How do you feel about yourself in relation to glory and honor? The opposite emotion is the root of anger. This journey of discovery is an adventure of revelation in the most personal way.
Lesson 9: Family Rules That Create Anger
Now that you know the deep root of anger it is time to learn how that root was established. Every family has rules, but some families have rules that will create this deep root. What rules are these? How can this type of rule be identified? You will find out here the seven detailed rules of family operation that lead to creating the deep root of anger in a child. Get ready for a powerful eye-opener here.
Lesson 10: Lies That Retain Shame
Craig has exposed two lies that retain shame and he’s ready to share seven more. It is important to remember that anger is an indicator, a warning light showing the presence of a deep root of shame. Another word for these nine shame-retaining lies is “stronghold.” This stronghold of nine lies can cause your own heart to condemn you. The Holy Spirit has infused this lesson with bondage-breaking truth and His powerful deliverance. Dig in here for intensely real and effective solutions to getting rid of the root of anger.
Lesson 11: A Lifetime of Denial
In this lesson, Craig draws character profiles that will fascinate you whether you recognize others you know or actually see yourself. Going beyond factual information, these real life behavorial examples make the shame-based view of yourself and the world become suddenly very real. Craig shares a very transparent story that will make you laugh out loud yet feel his humiliation and anger at the same time.
Lesson 12: Shame and the Anointing
Plunge into this final lesson to hear the conclusion of victory to Craig’s story with details about how his wife helped him overcome—even though he was blaming her for ruining everything! The Holy Spirit often brings forth an old memories from your childhood to reveal a root so that it can be cut off.

You will hear a real-time example of how you can partner with the Holy Spirit to find lasting breakthrough and walk in true freedom.
