Our culture makes it hard to slow down. Depending on your stage of life, it might feel nearly impossible — jobs, kids, commitments, constant demands. So what's the solution? Learn from the life of Jesus. Live at his speed — not a rushed speed, not a distracted pace. Can you picture Jesus cutting people off in traffic, or glued to his phone while talking to someone? Of course not! And as disciples, we are called to conform our lives to His: to slow down, to live attentively.   Click here to watch "The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry"   Readings at this Mass: Eccl 1:2; 2:21–23 | Col 3:1–5, 9–11 | Lk 12:13–21

"The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry--The Solution: The Rest-Giver" (Hebrews 4:1-13)

We remember the life of Dr. John MacArthur who passed away on July 14. Then we turn to our topic. Seth Troutt has these words of encouragement for young men: Don't be a sluggard. Don't be lazy. He believes the inability or unwillingness to work hard is corrosive, lethal, and tempting. How is sloth ruining the lives of the next generation? And how do we ruthlessly eliminate it?

We made it y'all! This is the Season 3 finale of Wrestling With Life, and wow—what a ride it's been. This season was all about stepping boldly in faith, chasing those God-sized dreams, and trusting Him even when the path felt totally unclear. I got to sit down with some of the most inspiring, faith-filled humans right here in my hometown of Wilmington, NC. We talked about building businesses from scratch, walking through the unknown, and leaning on Jesus through it all. God's hand has been all over these conversations. I'm just in awe of how He shows up when we choose to trust Him and say yes. We're closing out this series with one last solo episode talking about: Why more money won't actually make you happier How releasing a mindset of lack and stepping into gratitude opens up opportunities The way God has provided in my business in the first 3 months If you've been rocking with me all season—thank you. And if this is your first episode, you picked a good one. Thanks to all of the amazing guests who made this season possible! Let's wrap this thing up together and celebrate what He's done.

Ruthless Elimination Of Exhaustion: Ruth 3 w/Darren Tyler

When I read John Mark Comer's "The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry," I was excited to see how his approach to clothing aligns with my philosophy. Wardrobe simplicity eliminates hurry and restores peace by removing unnecessary decisions from your day, allowing you to focus on what truly matters. In this episode, I share four essential questions to ask before any purchase and I explain why having fewer, better garments creates space for what truly matters. The American expectation that women should rarely repeat outfits doesn't just clutter our closets—it complicates our mornings and clouds our minds. This week's episode includes a practical challenge: Create your two favorite outfits for the current season and experience the liberation that comes when wardrobe decisions become effortless. What's the fewest number of outfits you could get by with? #SignatureStyleSystems #WardrobeSimplicity #EliminateHurry #IntentionalLiving Let's connect! Are you a DIYer?

Luke and Seth discuss the wisdom literature and how to apply it to various seasons of life. Wisdom, or skill, is seasonal and contextual. How do we apply the Song of Songs? What dangers are there if we apply the book of Ecclesiastes too quickly? Can we run before we walk when it comes to wisdom?

Dallas Willard challenges us to "ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life." John Mark Comer was so moved by this line, he titled his book "The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry." We wonder why we can't hear the voice of God, or find his presence in the busy-ness of life. Perhaps the still, small voice still speaks in those inner rooms and deserted places Jesus chose to frequent throughout his life. Could it be that "doing more" is actually standing in the way of "being with"?The sermon today is titled "Wasting Time With God." It is the eighth installment in our series "Follow Me", and the fourth in the sub-series "Be With Jesus." The Scripture reading is from Luke 10:38-42 (ESV). Originally preached at the West Side Church of Christ (Searcy, AR) on March 23, 2025. All lessons fit under one of 6 broad categories: Begin, Instill, Discover, Grow, Learn, and Serve.

EPISODE 458 | Overcoming Elder Syndrome: The Prodigal Who Never LeftThis week on IGNITE Radio Live, we're taking a deep breath—literally. We begin by sharing the incredible impact of our Lenten Live IT series with couples in our home, journeying through John Mark Comer's The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry. This week's focus on Sabbath challenged us to slow down, rest, and reconnect with God and each other in ways that truly restore the soul.We also take a moment to honor the unsung heroes of the home—stay-at-home moms—with a special gift we're calling “Beverage, Book, and a Time to Breathe” at our favorite local spot, Novel Blends in Bowling Green. The first ten moms to email Greg@MassImpact.us will receive a drink, a moment of peace, and a copy of my new book, Twelve Roses—a moving story of redemption and hope.We've launched a daily "LIVE IT TODAY" reflection on the daily Gospel, available as early as 6am every day HERE, which is already tracking in the hundreds!Then, we go deep into the Gospel with a powerful episode titled: “Overcoming Elder Syndrome: The Prodigal Who Never Left.”We unpack the five hidden facets of the older brother in Jesus' parable—how many devout, faithful Catholics might be spiritually close but emotionally far from the Father's heart. It's a wake-up call for those of us doing all the “right” things, but missing the joy, mercy, and intimacy at the heart of the Gospel.Tune in. Be refreshed. Be challenged. Be transformed.OUR MISSION: We're uniting families in building the Kingdom. Over the past ten years, thousands have been blessed by a "family roadmap."

Happy Monday! Come hang out and discuss John Mark Comer's The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry. We think everyone has something to gain by reading this book. Don't miss this episode!

Slowing down is one of the hardest things to do in our modern culture.  We are told to "earn your value" and then filled with lots of quick easy distractions to fill our leftover time.  Yet, slowing down is exactly what we need to get physically, mentally, and spiritually healthy.  In this episode, I'm sharing my recent experience of slowing down: a Disney cruise with 19 family members. And what I learned from 6 days without text, email, social media.  And challenging you to a week of slowing down.  It's in those times that the clarity and true connections in life start to shine through.  Plus, I'm sharing a few great thoughts and resources to help you intentionally slow down.  If you are ready to start your own Healthy Me Reset, head to www.emilyvinzantmd.com and come work with me!   Resources:  3 Healthy Habits for 2025 episode The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry  The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

During almost every waking moment in our culture, there is a battle for our attention: News headlines preying on our fear or our anger; social media feeds expertly designed to keep us scrolling; click-bait ads that we just can't help but click on… And as our attention gets gobbled up, our most important priorities slip further away. So in today's sermon we'll explore a powerful biblical passage that challenges us to intentionally guard our attention so that we don't lose focus on the One who matters most.

In a world that never slows down, it's easy to get caught in the rush—constantly moving but never feeling at peace. But what if there's a better way? What if Jesus invites us to step off the treadmill of busyness and into a life of true purpose?In this teaching, we unpack Luke 10:38-42 and explore how choosing what truly matters can transform our lives. A hurried life leads to distraction, anxiety, and burnout, but an intentional life—rooted in spiritual formation—leads to peace, clarity, and impact.Key Takeaways:

Welcome to another episode of The Cutting Room Floor, where we further unpack Sunday's message, discuss practical applications, and hear some of what didn't make the final cut. Pastor Donny shares some final insights as we conclude our series in Ecclesiastes.Resources Mentioned in this episode:The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry - John Mark ComerSacred Rhythms - Ruth Haley Barton

When we're feeling exhausted, our culture offers us lots of ways we can rest. Whether it's shopping, Netflix, spa days, or vacations, the possibilities for physical and mental rest are endless. But sometimes we try all of that only to find that we're still exhausted. Our rest didn't work! Often, that's because we're too focused on the wrong kind of rest. In today's sermon, we'll learn from Jesus about a kind of rest that most of us desperately need but rarely think about. And we'll learn one super practical way to incorporate this important kind of rest into our daily lives. Join us as we continue our series inspired by the book, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry.  Scripture Reading: Luke 5:12-16 Share: Know someone who needs this message right now? Send them the link!

In this powerful message, Pastor Nick explores the often-overlooked spiritual disciplines of silence, solitude, and Sabbath, offering a counter-narrative to the relentless pace of modern life. Inspired by John Mark Comer's The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry, this message invites you to rediscover the profound importance of slowing down. Learn how these ancient practices can bring peace to your soul, clarity to your mind, and renewed strength to your spirit as you find rest in God's presence. Perfect for anyone seeking to break free from the busyness of life and embrace a deeper, more meaningful rhythm of rest.

We humans instinctively hate feeling limited. When we're told “you can't,” or “that's enough,” or “you must,” we tend to bristle and push back. But while that defiant spirit is sometimes justified, it's often destructive to us. In fact, our stubborn determination to live without any limits is a driving force behind the relentless pace of our lives and our constant exhaustion. So in today's sermon, we'll explore how Jesus invites us to embrace our limitedness, finding true purpose and deep rest in the process. And as we celebrate Dr. King this weekend, we'll learn about a pivotal decision he made to embrace his personal limits that ultimately empowered his leadership in the Civil Rights movement.

In our current series, we delve into The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer, exploring the profound insights it offers for our modern, fast-paced lives.

Tune in for encouragement, reflection, and guidance on how to live a more abundant, Christ-centered life.

Most of us live in a constant state of hurry. From the moment our alarm wakes us up in the morning until we finally crash back into bed at night, we spend most of our waking hours rushing through our errands, tasks, meals, and responsibilities. But while our frenetic pace is normalized and even celebrated in our culture, it's destructive to our bodies, our minds, and our souls. So in today's sermon, we'll consider what God has to say about the speed of our lives, and we'll learn some practical ways to slow ourselves down.

Practicing the Way with John Mark ComerThe start of a new year prompts the reflection that if we are not intentionally modeling our life after Jesus, we are likely being formed by something or someone else. Adrift in the cultural current, we're likely to be carried to places we never consciously chose and wonder how we got there.In Practicing the Way, John Mark Comer explores what it means in our times to be a disciple of Jesus -- to be with him, to become like him, and to do as he did:“ It seems to me that the telos of the spiritual journey in the Christian way is becoming a person of love through deepening union with the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit…It's the two greatest commandments: love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself, that Jesus put at the center of apprenticeship to him.” - John Mark ComerWe hope this conversation encourages you to move slowly as you abide with Jesus this year, and by his grace are transformed into a person of deeper love, joy, and peace.This podcast is an edited version of a conversation recorded in 2024.

For those that are new around here, I release bonus episodes that serve a niche part of my audience, I have listeners of all faith backgrounds that listen to the podcast. This episode is coming from a christian perspective so if that's something that doesn't fit what you're looking for, check out the other episode that dropped this week about personal style with Conni Jesperson or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation that you don't want to miss!In this episode, I spoke with author, Whitney Lowe to discuss her new book, Set Your Eyes Higher, a devotional designed to help young women navigate life through the lens of faith and abundance. Together, we delve into how shifting from a scarcity mindset to one rooted in God's provision can transform the way we approach consumerism, minimalism, and the true meaning of fulfillment. Whether you're seeking a deeper connection with God or looking for ways to simplify your life, this conversation is full of encouragement to set your sights on a higher purpose.About Whitney |Whitney Lowe is a Christian influencer who wants to see young women excited about God's work: in the Bible, in history, in the world, and in themselves. She writes and creates on Instagram at ScribbleDevs, a project born from the realization that young women simply do not interact with the Bible enough to be changed by its truth. Whitney is passionate about disrupting the toxic scroll of social media with hope, peace, and light straight from Scripture. She lives in Denver, Colorado, with her husband—a pastor—and their two young children.Links Discussed in This Episode |Order a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with SimplicityPrevious Episode: John Mark Comer Discusses the Ruthless Elimination of Hurry (Bonus Episode)Whitney's Resource: 1-2-3 Magic by Thomas Phelan | How to Talk So Little Kids Will Listen by Joanna FaberWhitney Can't Stop Talking About: Era by BrumateConnect with Whitney:IG + FB + TikTokEpisode Sponsors |The Minimalist Moms Podcast would not be possible without the support of weekly sponsors.

Growing up with an emotionally abusive father, Kim Tschirret believed she needed to perform for love and approval. She found solace during her turbulent adolescence in taking care of her horse. After she met Christ, He began to heal her and eventually led her to open an equine therapy ministry to help kids in crisis find healing. Today, she shares how God's steadfast love has taught her to rest in Him and share His comfort with others.    Hope Reins  The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer    The Church today is often seen as irrelevant. But this couldn't be further from the truth. At the Colson Center, we believe the Church is God's gift to the world, called to be present and active in this cultural moment without being taken captive by it. In other words, the Church is meant to “move the world,” not move with the world. That's why we equip believers with a Christian worldview through our media, training programs, and events—because a Church that “moves the world” starts with one faithful Christian. We need your help to continue strengthening the Church in 2025. Thanks to a generous matching donation, every gift between now and December 31 will be DOUBLED until we meet the full match. Help us strengthen the Church to move the world in 2025. Make a gift with double the impact at colsoncenter.org/swdecember.   The Strong Women Podcast is a product of the Colson Center ,which equips Christians to live out their faith with clarity, confidence, and courage in this cultural moment. Through commentaries, podcasts, videos, and more, we help Christians better understand what's happening in the world, and champion what is true and good wherever God has called them.

We live in a hurried world. The modern conveniences that are touted to "save time'" are keeping us busier than ever. We over-schedule, over-commit, and end each day exhausted and already focused on the demands of tomorrow.Quite often, it is our relationships with God and our family that suffer the absence of our time and attention.

Are we setting examples we hope our children will follow?The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry offers tangible suggestions for living an unhurried life. The book encourages us to spend more time focusing on love, joy, and peace, and less time in a frantic state of constant motion. If you are seeking a peace-filled life, listen up.Show Notes:The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry: How to Stay Emotionally Healthy and Spiritually Alive in the Chaos of the Modern World by John Mark Comer
