Paul’s Not Whining. Why Are We?


Season 2 Episode 27

Ever notice how God repeats the same truth until it finally sinks in? In this episode, we sit with Ephesians 1:15–16 and watch Paul pray not for his chains to be broken, but for people he loves. From a prison cell, he shows us a way out of self-pity and into a life marked by gratitude, intercession, and hope.
Chris joins me as we discuss why repetition in Scripture isn’t wasted space, but rather God turning up the volume on what we’ve been missing. Paul’s decision to “cease not” to give thanks and to pray by name for others is more than noble. It’s a lifeline. Gratitude lifts us when bitterness feels easier.

 Intercession steadies us when venting seems natural. Both faith and fear ask us to trust what we can’t see, so why not choose the path that leads to life?
By the end, you’ll have a simple rhythm to reset your mindset: name three things to be thankful for, pray for three people, and let gratitude lead your heart. If you’ve been stuck in self-focus and longing for a way forward, this conversation offers a grounded, Scripture-shaped path to get your life back on track one honest prayer at a time.
