Boredom used to be normal. Now, we can’t sit still. This week, we talk about reclaiming silence and solitude in a noisy, distracted world.
This episode continues our journey through The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry, inspired by John Mark Comer and grounded in Matthew 11:28–30. We explore how the way of Jesus offers rest, simplicity, and healing in a culture obsessed with busyness—and how embracing his lifestyle means real change, not just good intentions.
