Re-air Episode: Are You Worshiping the To-Do List?
This week we're replaying one of our most-loved episodes of The Encourager Podcast.
Have you ever reached the end of the day, checked everything off your list, and still felt like you missed what mattered most? In this replay, I share a vulnerable story about a Monday when I accomplished everything on my to-do list but missed one of the most important moments of my week. That experience shifted my perspective from serving efficiency as a god to seeing it as a tool that should support, not replace, my values and mission.
Whether you're listening for the first time or revisiting this conversation, I hope it encourages you to pause, reflect, and realign how you approach productivity through the lens of intentionality, connection, and grace.
In This Episode:
ā¢ Why "Efficiency is king, but it's a terrible god" changed how I think about my time
ā¢ The bedtime moment I missed and what it taught me about priorities
ā¢ How efficiency can quietly become an idol in our homes and schedules
ā¢ What it looks like to choose presence over productivity in your five systems: Me, Food, Home, Work, and Family
ā¢ Three questions to help you reclaim connection and peace
