The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry - Part 4
The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry - Part 3
Week 2 of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry dives into the real cost of a rushed life. Hurry drains us physically, emotionally, and spiritually—it steals our joy, dries up our love, and drowns out God’s still, small voice. Scripture reminds us to slow down, to rest, and to trust that God’s plan for us includes peace, margin, and Sabbath (Ecclesiastes 4:6, Psalms 23, Mark 2:27).
We hurry because of fear—fear of missing out, falling behind, or not mattering. But Jesus calls us to lay down fear and live with faith: not the absence of doubt, but obedience in the middle of it. When we slow our pace and seek first the Kingdom (Matthew 6:33), we discover that God’s rest is exactly what our souls have been longing for.

The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry reminds us that a hurried life is not a Christlike life. Jesus calls us to lay down our obsession with stuff, time, and priorities that distract us, and instead find rest and joy in Him alone (Matthew 11:28–30). When we make Him greater, the things that once consumed us grow smaller in light of His presence.
True joy is not the same as fleeting happiness—it’s a fruit of the Spirit that comes from aligning our lives with God’s desires. At the end of the day, Jesus + nothing = everything, and everything – Jesus = nothing.

How To Read the Bible and Not Get Bored
In this message from our Fake News series, we confront a lie most of us are tempted to believe: Pain should be avoided at all costs. Whether it’s the belief that pain means God has let us down, or that avoiding discomfort is always the wisest path, this mindset can subtly shape how we live—and keep us from obedience, growth, and true joy.
Through Scripture and practical insight, we explore a better truth: pain isn’t from God, but He can use it. Obedience may sometimes cost us comfort, but it also forms character, courage, and deeper faith. Trials teach us what comfort never could—and if we can’t get out of it, we can still get something out of it.
With wisdom from James, Romans, and Hebrews, we’re invited to shift our mindset, root our response in truth, and pray not just for relief—but for wisdom.
