🎙️ Episode 12: Stop Planning and Start Doing – Authenticity Beats Polish
Are you stuck in the planning phase? Overthinking every detail, trying to get everything perfect before you move forward?
In this solo episode, Tony opens up about a last-minute shift in plans, a surprise moment at a disability family retreat, and the lesson God keeps pressing on his heart: ministry is not about being polished—it’s about being present. Through personal stories and a challenge straight from Luke 11, this episode reminds us that sometimes God moves best in the moments we didn’t schedule.
If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines waiting for the “perfect time,” this is your invitation to stop planning and start doing. Whether you’re leading a ministry, launching a project, or just trying to take the next step in faith—you don’t need it all figured out. You just need to go.
🔥 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
• The phrase Tony couldn’t get out of his head this week
• A story about an unexpected Conga line and real joy
• What Luke 11 teaches about clean dishes and the inside
• Why overplanning kills movement—and how to stop
• A prayer for courage, clarity, and God-honoring momentum
