Episode 3875: Maneesh Sethi explores how eliminating modern distractions and radically shifting his environment unlocked levels of focus he didn't know he had. By living in a cave without technology, he discovered that productivity, clarity, and purpose aren't about willpower, they're about creating the right context. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.theminimalists.com/maneesh/ Quotes to ponder: "Minimalism, at its root, is more than just throwing away everything that you own. It's about learning to thrive, not survive, but thrive, regardless of your circumstances." "Success isn't about being 'on' all the time, it's about focusing for intense bursts of time, and then disengaging." "You have to create a self-reinforcing context that makes it impossible to fail."

It’s easy to measure our worth by what we accomplish—or what we fail to accomplish. Many of us go to bed replaying the day’s shortcomings: missed goals, broken habits, forgotten disciplines, and moments where we didn’t live up to who we want to be. Even when we know our identity isn’t supposed to rest on productivity, performance, or spiritual “checklists,” repeated failure can leave us feeling weary, discouraged, and stuck. Over time, those feelings can become fertile ground for lies—whispers that God is disappointed, that we’re not enough, or that we’re failing as believers. This devotional points us back to a powerful reminder: God’s story has always included people with broken pasts and imperfect lives. Rahab’s story is a striking example. Scripture doesn’t erase her past, yet it also doesn’t let her past define her future. She could have believed she was unqualified or unworthy to be part of God’s plan, but faith gave her courage to act. And through her obedience, God not only saved her and her family, but also placed her into the legacy of redemption—ultimately leading to the line of David and even Jesus. The devotional reminds us that living in truth requires daily commitment. There is spiritual warfare that targets our identity and aims to wear us down with shame and discouragement. That’s why we need to actively anchor ourselves in God’s Word—praying, reading, memorizing, and speaking truth over ourselves when lies try to take root. Your value is not based on what you did today, how you performed, or how perfectly you kept a plan. Your worth is rooted in Christ alone—His finished work on the cross, His love for you, and His purpose for your life. You are loved, you have meaning, and God is still writing His story through you. Main Takeaways It’s easy to tie identity to performance, but our worth is found in Christ alone. Repeated failure can make us vulnerable to lies, shame, and spiritual discouragement. Rahab’s story shows that God uses imperfect people and redeems broken pasts. Spiritual warfare often targets identity, so we must actively fight with God’s Word. Your value is rooted in who you belong to—not in what you accomplish. Today’s Bible Verse: Joshua 2:1 Your Daily Prayer Here is a brief excerpt from today’s prayer: “Please help us to fully embrace the truth that our worth is not based on what we do, but on who we belong to.” You can read the full prayer and devotional at the links below.

Do we really have a good heart? John and Allen take a fresh look at this question and the significant ramifications of how we answer it in the start of this foundational series. Many Christians still believe—and live under the false burden—that their hearts are desperately wicked. God, however, promises to set a new heart within us (Luke 15:8), and Jesus spoke of those with a “good and noble heart” (Luke 15:8).

Are you living the life God called you to live, or are you settling for spiritual mediocrity? In this powerful message, Pastor Jerry Dirmann teaches from John 15:5-8 about how to make your life count through abiding in Christ and bearing much fruit. Jesus promises that when you abide in Him and He in you, you WILL bear much fruit—guaranteed. This isn't about working on church staff or having perfect circumstances. It's about immediate obedience and refusing to waste the time God has given you. Discover why Peter and Andrew immediately left their nets to follow Jesus, and what that means for your life today.

So Much More: Creating Space for God (Lectio Divina and Scripture Meditation)
A Scripture Meditation on Psalm 27 using Lectio Divina. Do not be afraid. Easier said than done. Fear is a common emotion when we feel scared, concerned, or even ashamed. In this Psalm, David was being pursued by his very real enemies who wanted to do very real hard to him. In the face of this uncertainty, David chose courageous trust when he declared that God was greater than his enemies and therefore, he would not be afraid. David placed his confidence in the Lord. May we do the same. Listen in to this guided meditation and allow the Holy Spirit to direct you to what he has for you. Here’s some helpful links I discussed in the podcast: The guided retreat to help you move into this new year with intention is here.

The Lord is the stronghold of my life— of whom shall I be afraid? 2 When the wicked advance against me to devour me, it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall. 3 Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident. 13 I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. 14 Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

When emotions feel tangled or words won’t come out right, God invites you to pour out your heart to Him as a safe refuge. Psalm 62:8 reminds us that whether we speak freely or sit silently, God listens closely and welcomes every concern we bring before Him. Highlights God invites you to pour out your heart—without fear or filtering. Whether you process internally or externally, God can handle your words or your silence. God is a refuge, not threatened by emotion or overwhelmed by honesty. When words fail, the Holy Spirit helps express what’s on your heart (Romans 8:26). God bends down to listen, drawing closer rather than pulling away. David modeled honest expression through prayer, music, and worship. God can communicate what you cannot find words to say—even to others. Do you want to listen ad-free?

Full Transcript Below: Pouring Out Your Heart By Cindi McMenamin Bible Reading:Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us. (Psalm 62:8 NASB) Do you ever long for a safe place to pour out your heart? Some people are internal processors. They run thoughts through their minds and at times find it difficult to verbally express what’s on their hearts. At times, I wish I were that way. To the contrary, I struggle with keeping it all inside. As a verbal or external processor, I repeat instructions aloud to make sure I understand them. And I express my thoughts verbally as a way of sorting through them. To my husband, who is an internal processor, that’s exhausting at times. For me, it’s essential. To hold it in is to put a stopper on my heart, and I feel I will suffocate. Until pent-up feelings eventually blow, like an eruption of emotion that can be overwhelming to those I love the most. In the aftermath of a gush of words, there can sometimes be regret. But God is not threatened by my words—or yours. And He’s not irritated by our silence, either. He tells us, in His Word, to pour out our hearts before Him, and then He tells us He is a refuge, a safe place—we don’t need to fear what we said or the words we withheld. He knows, and can handle them all—or none at all. And if you’re one who struggles with how to verbally express how you feel, or when you do, you choose the wrong words, Romans 8:26 tells us His Spirit will communicate with yours and express your very heart to your Heavenly Father. I love how the Contemporary English Version renders Psalm 62:8: “Trust God, my friends, and always tell him each of your concerns. God is our place of safety.” Intersecting Faith & Life: Could you use a safe place when it comes to bearing your soul? Do you need a refuge, a place to hide, when you’re not ready to express how you feel? God is there for us whenever we need to process our thoughts and feelings. He is the Ultimate Listener and the Perfect Communicator. He is the Quiet Encourager and our Comforting Presence. Psalm 116:2 in the New Living Translation says: “Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!” I love how that verse indicates He will come near us, rather than walk away, when we have something we need to say. He will draw closer—in order to listen carefully—when He knows we struggle with how to express what’s on our hearts, or how to filter our words. As a father with an ear bent toward his loving child, our God will listen. So, pour it out. Or keep it in, and just close your eyes and reflect on being in His presence. He knows exactly what you need to say. He can hear your unspoken words, too. I tend to think David, the psalmist, needed to write music and lyrics in order to express his heart. And I believe he counted on God to help him find words for what he felt, so he could express those words to God and sing them back to Him. In doing so, he experienced God’s strength in the midst of his weakness. What do you need to express to someone today, while you struggle to find the right words? Can you tell it to God instead, or ask Him to search your mind and thoughts and help you convey what you need to say to someone else? Many times, when I’m at a loss for how to say something to someone at just the right time and in just the right way, I’ve asked my heavenly Father to convey to that person what’s on my heart without me having to say anything. He has an amazing way of touching someone’s heart and making them “hear” what I really wanted to say to them, but never found the words to do so. Oh, the overwhelming, astounding love of God. All His ways are perfect, says Psalm 18:30. And through His help, we are strengthened. The next time you need to speak up or hold it in, praise Him for being a God who listens. And then pour out your heart before Him. Your words are safe with Him. Further Reading:Psalm 139:1-18. For more on connecting more closely with God, and with others, see my books, The New Loneliness and The New Loneliness Devotional.

Success isn't about doing more; it's about doing what actually matters. Discover how adopting an essential mindset can transform your business and your life. Many women are capable of juggling numerous tasks, but capability does not equate to sustainability. When everything feels important, our energy gets diluted, and we risk burnout. I'll guide you through the process of identifying what truly supports the life and business you're building. By the end of this episode, you'll have actionable insights on how to create focus, build emotional capacity, and embrace the discomfort of leaving some things undone. Remember, the woman you're becoming doesn't do less because she can't do more; she does less because she knows what truly matters.
A Prayer for the Joy of Being by Nicolet Bell There is a sacred invitation found in Psalm 46:10—to be still before the Lord.In today's episode by Nicolet Bell, she reflects on those first few weeks of welcoming a new baby boy. As a self-described “doer,” this episode explores how difficult—and necessary—it is to slow down and simply be. Through the ancient practice of breath prayers, we’re reminded that stillness is not passive but deeply formative. Whether in seasons of grief or joy, our need for God’s presence remains the same.This episode invites us to breathe deeply, trust God’s sovereignty, and rest in the truth that He is at work—even when we are not. Reference: Psalm 46:10 Prayer: Be still and know, and that He is God. Be still and know that he is God. Father, whether we find ourselves today in a season of grief, a season of joy, or somewhere in between, may you help us to experience the joy of being- being found in your presence being known by you.

There are moments when we want to obey God with all our heart—but we feel completely stuck. We pray, we wait, we ask again, and still, it seems like heaven is silent. This devotional puts words to that frustrating experience: pacing, pleading, searching for clarity, and feeling anxious because we don’t want to make the wrong decision. When we don’t know what to do, the pressure can become overwhelming, especially when we set timelines and demand certainty. But in the midst of that tension, today’s devotional offers a perspective shift that can bring peace: what if God cares more about the posture of our hearts than the perfection of our choices? What if the question isn’t only What should I do? but also How am I walking while I wait? That’s where Scripture gives us a simple, steady anchor: “Do everything in love.” Love becomes a compass when direction feels unclear. Instead of spiraling into distress, we can learn to “wait well”—not by forcing answers, but by choosing patience and surrender. Waiting well looks like staying rooted in God’s Word, loving Him even when we don’t understand, loving ourselves with kindness instead of criticism, and loving others as we discern next steps. When decisions must be made, we can ask: Will this move me toward greater love for God, myself, and others—or will it reduce love? When love leads, we can trust God to fill in the gaps, guide us on His timeline, and direct our path with purpose. Main Takeaways God’s silence can feel frustrating, but it doesn’t mean He is absent. Sometimes God is more focused on your heart posture than the “perfect” decision. Love is a reliable compass when clarity feels out of reach. Waiting well means resisting distress and choosing endurance through love. When making decisions, ask what will produce more love toward God, yourself, and others. Today’s Bible Verse: 1 Corinthians 16:14 Your Daily Prayer Here is a brief excerpt from today’s prayer: “Father, I need help with the direction I should take… Will you lead me on Your paths of love?” You can read the full prayer and devotional at the links below.

The 12 tribes of Israel play a crucial role in how the story of the Bible unfolds. These descendents of the sons of Jacob (renamed Israel) form the backbone of the redemption story the culminates in Jesus. In this Discover the Word study with archaeologist Dr. Jonathan Greer, the group explores a little discussed tribe of Israel that has a shady past going all the way back to the patriarch himself--Jacob's son Dan. Sometimes the stories in the Bible surprise us and make us feel uncomfortable, and leave us thinking "That's not the way it's supposed to be!" Such is the case for much of The Story of Dan. But while the tribe of Dan has a mixed legacy when it comes to worshipping God, this study reveals how God, remaining faithful to His promises to Abraham, redeems Dan and all of Israel in Jesus, who makes things the way they should be.

Trusting God in times of trouble anchors your heart when life feels heavy, exhausting, or uncertain. Nahum 1:7 reminds us that God’s goodness doesn’t change with seasons or circumstances—He is a steady refuge who deeply cares for those who choose to trust Him. Highlights Trouble is part of life, but God promises His presence through it. God is a refuge—safe, reliable, and unshaken by your circumstances. His goodness is constant, not dependent on your emotions or environment. God cares personally about your sadness, stress, and unanswered prayers. Trusting God means releasing control and surrendering outcomes to Him. Rest comes when we stop striving and lean into God’s care. God’s presence provides the warmth and light we need in dark seasons.

He cares for those who trust in him,” – Nahum 1:7, NIV During the winter – when the days are shortest, the weather is coldest, and the festive energy of the holidays has worn off – many people struggle with feeling sad and tired. The winter can feel like an unending time of trouble since it’s a dark, cold season that seems to drag on forever. But in this fallen world, there are so many challenges that you can experience trouble anytime. Thankfully, this Bible verse reminds you that God is a refuge you can turn to in times of trouble. A refuge is a safe place with reliable help. God is the ultimate refuge for you, whenever you’re facing any kind of trouble. God is always purely good. He doesn’t change with the seasons or with your feelings. God’s goodness is a constant truth you can build your life on. The Bible doesn’t promise that you won’t experience trouble. In fact, it often acknowledges that trouble is a part of life in this broken world. Jesus says straight out in John 16:33 that: “in this world you will have trouble”. But he adds in that same verse: “But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Nahum 1:7 assures you that you don't have to face trouble alone. You can take refuge in God, who is completely trustworthy in every situation. The second part of this verse gives you the confidence that God “cares for those who trust in him.” The same God who created the vast universe and knows every star by name cares about the specific challenges you’re facing right now. He cares about the sadness and stress you’re feeling, and he hears your prayers and plans to answer them. When other people don’t really care about how sad or exhausted you feel, you can relax and be honest with God. God will listen to how you really feel, and he really cares. But God also asks you to trust him. Trust is the key that unlocks God’s care in your life. How can you trust God to care for you? You need to let go of the need to control the outcomes of the troubling situations you’re facing. Just like you can’t control the temperature or the amount of daylight in winter, and you can’t force yourself to feel better. But you can choose to surrender your struggle to God, and you can trust that God will help you with whatever you need when you ask for his help. So, talk with God honestly. Share all of your difficult feelings with God, and tell him you’re choosing to trust him to help you with what you need. Then, rest in the reality that God will keep his promises. God promises to be a refuge for you in times of trouble. He promises to care for you when you trust him. So, choose to believe that God will really do that! In the cold, dark days of winter, trusting God allows you to stop worrying about finding the warmth and light you need. Instead, you get to rest in the warmth and light of God’s presence with you. You can take a deep breath and remember that God’s goodness is your greatest resource. God is watching over you, guiding you, and providing for you – even in times of trouble. Take the pressure off yourself to be cheerful when you’re feeling sad, or to be productive when you’re tired. Just focus on connecting with God’s presence with you, and trusting God to help you. God is good, he is your refuge, and he cares for you. Let God’s care be the strength that gets you through times of trouble. Intersecting Faith & Life: As you consider why it’s important to trust God to care for you in times of trouble, reflect on these questions: What kind of trouble are you currently facing? How does knowing that God is a refuge for you change how you view the trouble you’re going through right now? Does it feel less overwhelming? What’s a situation in your life where you’re trying to control the outcome? How can you trust God to help you with that situation so you can relax and experience God’s best for you? When was a time in the past when you were going through a time of trouble and God cared for you then? How can you remind yourself this week to trust God more when you’re feeling sad or tired?
