Hustle culture tells us that the answer to burnout is better productivity — tighter systems, longer hours, and more discipline.
But Scripture tells a different story.
In this Faith + Focus episode, we explore the difference between toxic, world-based productivity and fruitful productivity rooted in obedience, preparation, and rest. You’ll hear why productivity alone was never the biblical goal — and how fruitfulness changes the way we approach our work, our schedules, and our sense of worth.
We look at:
-
Why hustle culture feels productive but leaves us exhausted
-
What Scripture actually emphasizes instead of constant output
-
How preparation and rest are woven into God’s design for work
-
Why validation was never meant to come from accomplishments
-
What it looks like to pursue fruitfulness without striving
If you’re a Christian business owner, creative, or working woman who wants to honor God and care for your energy, this episode offers a grounded, practical reframe — not guilt, not hustle, and not a checklist.
Make sure you come back each Friday for practical steps you can take to start keeping the Sabbath as a Christian Business Owner.
