In this episode Aaron and SB record outside in Sydney Australia while the birds are alive and chirping. They answer the questions
“How do I faithfully manage being a new mom, a wife, working full-time in ministry, and going to school full-time without burning out—especially when your time with God starts to feel like work instead of relationship? (Submitted by Avery, 20, Cado Mills)
“How do I return to delighting in the gifts that God has given me and using them to edify the church when I’ve grown burdened by them? I had a long history of using my musical gifts in worship ministry, albeit while dismissing the health of my own heart, to the point that I now struggle to find pleasure in engaging my gifts to connect with Jesus. More than anything, I want to return to this place—the drive just isn’t there. Where do I start? (Submitted by Taylor, 25, Ohio)
