What if the pace you keep is quietly stealing the life with God you long for? This episode names the gap between what we know and how we live, and offers a gentle path forward. You’ll see why quick fixes don’t last, hear a clarifying word from John Mark Comer, and find hope for moving from frantic to fruitful by arranging your days around Jesus rather than squeezing Him into them.

Hit Play, Breathe Deep

• Spot the hidden habits that keep you rushing

💡Today’s Big Idea: To experience the Life of Jesus, adopt the lifestyle of Jesus

⚡️Today’s Small Step: Ask God one lingering question today:

“Lord, what part of my lifestyle is stealing the life You’ve given me?”

Then… just listen. Don’t rush past the answer.
