Send us a textTip 40: How To Be StillIn a world that constantly pushes hustle, hurry, and endless distractions, learning how to be still before the Lord can feel nearly impossible. Our brains are addicted to fake dopamine hits from scrolling, binge-watching, or staying “busy,” leaving little room for true rest in God’s presence.In this teaching, I walk you through what “being still” really means, why Jesus modeled it for us in Scripture, and how you can begin to practice it in your own life. You’ll learn:Why our culture resists stillnessThe connection between distraction, dopamine, and our distance from GodHow Jesus retreated for prayer before and after big momentsPractical tools to quiet racing thoughts and place your worries in God’s handsBe encouraged—it may feel uncomfortable at first, but with practice, stillness will become a powerful rhythm that draws you deeper into the Lord’s presence.✨ Sticky statement from this video: “If we are constantly stimulated and our thoughts are moving at a hundred miles per hour, how will we ever hear from the Lord?”📖 Scriptures mentioned: Matthew 14:22–23, Mark 1:35Christy's Book on Amazon Signed copy of Christy's book with personal message shop here Mental Health Coaching info and book here.
