464: How to Find More Joy, Peace & Patience (Without Trying Harder)

Have you ever had one of those weeks where everything looked good... but something just felt off?

You were getting things done. The calendar was full. The projects were moving. From the outside, everything looked fine.

But underneath the surface?

Your patience was wearing thin.

Your peace was harder to find.

Your joy had quietly been replaced by pressure.

If you've ever been there... you're not alone.

In this special solo episode, Mitch shares a fresh insight from one of the Bible's most familiar passages, Galatians 5, that completely changed how he thinks about spiritual growth.

For years, many of us have unknowingly treated the Fruit of the Spirit like a spiritual report card, believing we're supposed to manufacture more love, more joy, more patience, and more peace through sheer effort.

But what if we've been reading it backwards?

What if those qualities aren't measuring your relationship with God... but inviting you deeper into it?

This simple shift brought Mitch freedom during a week when he needed it most. His hope is that it brings you the same encouragement.
