Send us a textHow often do we make decisions based on what feels easiest or safest? Whether it’s avoiding a difficult conversation, staying in a familiar routine, or struggling to watch our children go through hardships, our natural tendency is to seek comfort. But what if our pursuit of comfort is keeping us from experiencing the fullness of God’s plan for our lives?In this thought-provoking conversation, Dr. Elaina Barron and Angie Elkins dive into the dangers of prioritizing comfort over God’s calling. They discuss how comfort can subtly become an idol, preventing us from stepping into the areas where God wants to grow and stretch us. Through personal stories and biblical insights, they unpack how avoiding discomfort can impact our decision-making, prayer life, and even how we support our children through difficult seasons.The conversation also encourages listeners to examine their prayers—are we asking for comfort, or are we seeking God’s will even when it’s uncomfortable? Elaina shares practical ways to loosen our grip on creature comforts, embrace challenges, and trust that true peace comes not from ease, but from obedience.God often does His greatest work in the places that make us the most uncomfortable.
