It might be that you're simply exhausted from making all the world's decisions...aka decision fatigue. decision fatigue: the exhaustion one feels after making so many decisions that even the most insignificant asks become overwhelmingly huge and almost unbearable.

There are two main misconceptions about doubt in the Christian world: #1: If you have doubt, you don't have faith. Mark 9:24 is probably one of the most honest verses in all of the Bible. A father brings his son to Jesus who has been possessed by an evil spirit and essentially says to Him, "If you can do anything, please help us!" Jesus replies by telling him that all things are possible for those who believe. Mark 9:24 contains the father's response to Jesus: "I do believe; help my unbelief!” Have you ever felt that way -- where you believe but you need Jesus to help your unbelief? I know I have. Because God's ways are higher than ours, we will absolutely encounter moments and issues we don't fully understand. And so, we will also have moments of doubt.

The more you feel His peace and His presence when every inch of your flesh "knows" you [...]

Our goal for every resource + training we offer aims to move from a Biblical foundation to practical application. [ICYMI, we shared the practical side of the 3-steps of the 3-Step Planner already here] - so now, we wanna jump behind-the-scenes and show you the real reason we're confident this 3-Step System will work for you: each step is grounded in godly wisdom. You may have heard us say it before: instead of always trying to do something or say something new, our aim is to remind you of what God has already said -- because what God has already said is all we really need to know. let's dig in: Brain Dump ---> Surrender it all. Anxiety and overwhelm go hand-in-hand. So the practical exercise of a brain dump allows you the opportunity to surrender everything rattling around inside your head to Jesus. Don't stop at simply writing it down - as you write it down, give it to God. Then, watch what He can do. Categorize ---> Confirmation of your calling. As humans, we have limits. In Christ, we can do [...]
