Have you ever felt worn out from trying to earn God’s approval? You’re not alone. In this episode, we open Ephesians 3:14-21 and discover what it means to be “strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man.”

Through honest stories and biblical truth, we explore the freedom that comes from moving from performance-driven striving to Spirit-enabled rest. Christianity was never meant to be a grind. It isn’t about proving how well we can live for Christ but learning to let Christ live through us.

We discuss the vast dimensions of God’s love, its breadth, length, depth, and height, and how His love encompasses our lowest failures and extends all the way to heaven’s glory. Perhaps the hardest truth to accept is also the most freeing: God loves you personally, and He isn’t keeping score.

I share my own journey of performance-based living and the guilt that comes with always feeling like I had to do more. Maybe you’ve felt the same way. The good news is that you can rest. You can stop striving and start abiding. The fullness of God is not found in your effort but in Christ Himself living in you.
If your soul has been craving rest, this conversation is for you. Listen now and discover that you cannot do anything to make God love you more or less. He loves you because of who He is, not because of what you do.
