Are you tired of feeling like you’re failing at your faith?

If you’ve been living in a cycle of "I’ll pray more tomorrow," or "I’ll reconnect with God once I get my life together," this episode is for you. We often treat our relationship with God like a performance review, constantly checking our spiritual stats and wondering why we don't feel "good enough."

In this debut episode, we’re tearing down the "performance mode" and laying a new foundation based on one life-altering truth: You were loved before you ever tried.

Inside this episode, we’re getting honest about:

• The difference between being physically tired and being soul-tired.

• Why we default to "hustle culture" in our quiet time.

• The "scandalous" truth of Romans 5:8—that Jesus chose your worst day, not your filtered version.

• How to stop hiding from God when life gets messy.

If you’re a busy parent, an overwhelmed professional, or just someone who hasn't opened their Bible in a while and feels the weight of that silence—you are not behind. You are exactly where you need to be.

Grab a coffee (or that laundry basket), take a deep breath, and let’s sit with the Word together. It’s time to stop striving and start resting in a love that isn't earned.

In this episode:

• [02:15] The "Soul-Tired" Check-in: Why you feel like you're failing.

• [06:40] Breaking down Romans 5:8—The love that came before the apology.

• [11:20] The "Worst Day" Visualization: Seeing yourself through His eyes.

• [13:45] A journaling prompt to help you release the pressure.
