454: Comfort Is KILLING You. Tim Timberlake on The Crisis of Convenience, Why God Doesn’t Live Up to Our Expectations, The Problem with Rushing Through Grief, Why God Doesn’t Live Up to Our Expectations, and Manufacturing Breakthrough
Manage episode 504147266 series 2294376
There’s a kind of rest that is still ravenous, and comfort alone is costing your soul more than you think. This week on Win Today, Tim Timberlake joins me to name the central lie of our era: that convenience equals progress. God rarely fits into the narrative designed by self‑help culture, and grief is rarely the speed bump we’re told. When breakthrough is packaged and delivered, it disconnects you from the transformative power of pain. Tim unpacks why immediate comfort doesn’t heal—it anesthetizes. Why rushing through grief doesn’t preserve strength—it fractures your future. And why so many believers craft manufactured breakthroughs that collapse when real life tests them. If your fast-track faith feels flat…if comfort makes you morally weaker…or if you've chased progress more than presence, this episode confronts the real cost, and invites deeper formation.
