In this episode of the Embracing Brokenness podcast, hosts Steve and Michael explore the biblical concept of 'minding your own business' as they delve into 1 Thessalonians 4.

They discuss the importance of leading a quiet life amidst chaos, managing life a bit like a corporation, and the significance of stewardship and balance in various life areas.

The conversation emphasizes God's creative authority in our lives, the need to avoid distractions and comparisons, and ultimately living a life that pleases God through love and stewardship.
