We live life on the run. Packed schedules, finances that don’t add up, broken relationships, fears that keep us awake at night. We go to bed exhausted and wake up feeling the same way, with the sense that life is slipping away somewhere between what feels urgent and what truly matters. But what if your life could be different? Simplifying isn’t just about doing less; it’s about becoming who God has called you to be, with a heart focused on what matters most. In this new series, we’ll discover together how to prioritize what truly matters, improve what God wants to develop within us, reduce the excess that overwhelms our souls, and live with a contentment that doesn’t depend on our circumstances, but on the presence of God. Because we only get one life, and it’s worth living with clarity. This is the art of decluttering the soul.
Exhausted, overwhelmed, and caught in a pace of life that feels normal but pulls us away from what truly matters. In Simplify, Bill Hybels invites us to examine the things that fill our schedules while emptying our souls. Simplifying life isn’t just about organizing our spaces or doing less; it’s about identifying and removing what drains our spirit so we can reclaim the priorities God has for us. Through practical principles and steps, Hybels addresses the root issues that keep us trapped in a frantic life and teaches us how to declutter our souls so we can live with greater purpose, clarity, and focus on what truly matters.
How to stay emotionally healthy and spiritually alive in the chaos of the modern world.
“Who am I becoming?”
That question continually challenged pastor and author John Mark Comer. Outwardly, he appeared successful, but inwardly, something wasn’t right. Seeking guidance from his mentor, he received an unexpected challenge: “Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of spiritual life.” Comer realized that we often treat the symptoms of our fast-paced lives without addressing the root problem: hurry. In “The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry”, he offers a practical roadmap for slowing down, resisting the relentless pace of modern life, and learning how to remain emotionally healthy and spiritually alive in a hurried and chaotic world.
