Ep. 15: Encouraging Growth by Cutting Back

We live in a culture that values constant and increasing growth. There is a sense that to take a step backward or slow down at all, is to risk everything you’re building. But Kingdom Culture offers us another way. This week we’re continuing our discussion on Kingdom Culture- specifically the benefits of pruning. If you’re feeling burdened or burnt out by seasons of over production and growth, this episode is for you.

Tune in to Hear:

  • How God used a fangirl moment to change Sandy’s life forever
  • How John 15:1-17 can be applied to our work in a deep and meaningful way
  • How God prunes back overgrowth in our writing career and why that’s so important.
  • Four techniques vinedressers use to prune aggressive growth (and what that might look like in our writing career)
  • Why God might prune actual fruit from your life and work
