Description
Are you living distracted? In this message, Christy Boulware gets real about the ways phones, social media, and even endless “knowledge” can quietly rob us of peace, joy, and time with God.
From sabbaticals that didn’t fix the problem to shocking stats on how often we pick up our phones, Christy shares her own journey of conviction—and why she believes distraction may be the greatest discipleship challenge of our time.
But this isn’t just about phones. It’s about what’s happening in our souls. Drawing from Scriptures like Matthew 11:28 (“Come to me, all who are weary…”) and Ecclesiastes 1:18 (“the more knowledge, the more grief”), Christy explores why constant information and divided attention keep us from the rest Jesus promised.
You’ll hear personal stories, insights from addiction recovery principles, and even wisdom passed down from her husband’s 103-year-old grandpa. More importantly, you’ll be invited to set boundaries, fight for focus, and rediscover the peace that comes only from keeping company with Christ.
Key Scriptures:
Matthew 11:28–30
Ecclesiastes 1:18
James 4:4
Matthew 16:21–26
Whether you struggle with your phone, endless busyness, or just feeling pulled in too many directions, this message is a call back to what matters most: walking with Jesus in freedom and rest.
Watch now, and ask: Where am I allowing distraction to steal from me? And am I bold enough to change it?
