We live in a world that begins with behaviorโfix the habit, change the outcome, move faster, do more. Scripture begins somewhere deeper: the heart.
In this reflective and pastoral episode of Rise with Brian Turner, Brian invites listeners to slow down and reconsider where real transformation begins. Drawing from Proverbs, the teachings of Jesus, and the wisdom of Scripture, ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐ฉ๐ข๐ฌ๐จ๐๐ ๐๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐จ๐ซ๐๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ก๐ฒ ๐ฅ๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ง๐ ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐จ๐ซ๐ญ ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ง๐, ๐๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ๐๐ ๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ซ๐๐ง๐๐ฐ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ค ๐จ๐ ๐๐จ๐ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ข๐ง๐ง๐๐ซ ๐ฅ๐ข๐๐.
Rather than offering quick fixes or self-improvement strategies, this conversation reframes spiritual growth as formationโshaped by attention, desire, and grace rather than pressure or performance.
Through biblical reflection, pastoral wisdom, and gentle invitation, Brian explores:
- Why Scripture prioritizes the heart before behavior or outcomes
- The difference between formation and self-improvement
- How rushing change often produces shallow fruit
- Why desire and attention play a central role in spiritual growth
- How God renews the heart from the inside out, over time
If youโve felt weary from trying harderโฆ
If your faith feels sincere but fragmentedโฆ
If you sense God inviting you to slow down rather than speed upโฆ
