Can burnout happen when you’re not doing too much, but too little? This Sunday, Pastor Louis delves into a surprising form of burnout: under-challenged burnout – a slow fade of motivation, purpose, and joy that happens when life feels too monotonous, when you’re not stretched or stirred. Drawing from Judges 6-8, we explore the story of Gideon, a reluctant leader who doubted his capacity but discovered what God could do through him when he stepped into divine challenge. In this message, we’ll unpack: 📏Why comfort zones can be more dangerous than we think. 📏What happens when we stop growing – spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. 📏The sweet spot of God-shaped challenge: not overload, not neglect, but faithful engagement. 📏How God develops character, competence, and calling through challenge. You were never meant to have a stagnant faith. You were made to step out, lean in, and grow deeper. 💬 “But how can I save Israel? My clan is the weakest … and I am the least.” Judges 6:15 God sees more in you than you likely see in yourself. Join us as we reclaim purpose and step into the kind of challenge that transforms. 🔔 Subscribe & Share
