FILLED Series - Week 3

You wake up tired. You go to bed tired. And somewhere in between, you're checking off tasks, meeting deadlines, serving at church, trying to pray, trying to read your Bible—trying to do all the things. And here's what's wild: you can be doing all the right things and still miss the one thing that matters most.

In this episode, we're sitting with the story of Mary and Martha—but not the way you've heard it before. This isn't just about two sisters with different personalities. It's about all of us who've confused busyness for faithfulness, who've turned worship into work, who are exhausted from performing for a God who just wants our presence.

In This Episode:

• Why Martha's good intentions weren't the problem—and what was
• How serving God can actually keep you from knowing God
• The counter-cultural power of choosing rest in a performance-driven world
• What Jesus really meant when He said "come to me and I'll give you rest"
• The uncomfortable question: Are you serving God or knowing God?

Key Scriptures We Explore: Luke 10:38-42 | Psalm 46:10 | Matthew 11:28-30 | 1 Samuel 16:7 | Hosea 6:6

This Week's Challenge: Take a Sabbath—a full day where you cease striving and simply receive God's presence. No work. No productivity. Just you and God.

If you're running on empty while working for God, if you're wondering why all your service hasn't brought you closer to Him, this episode is for you. Because God isn't impressed by your performance. But He is moved by your presence.
