Stop Performing for God: Ministry, Burnout & Trusting His Provision with Paul Granger

Send us Fan Mail What if ministry is not a title, but a way of living with God and loving people? Kristin talks with writer and longtime podcaster Paul Granger about living as an ambassador of Christ without the pressure to perform, build a platform, or prove your worth through numbers. Paul shares how God led him away from a traditional paycheck, taught him to trust divine provision, and met him in seasons of fear, criticism, burnout, and lament. Together, they explore healthy boundaries, mission drift, the danger of trying to “fix” people, and how creativity can help us recognize hope and meaning even when life feels empty—including the story behind Paul’s “Something in the Froth.” Paul's contact info: Website -  www.wheredidyouseeGod.com Paul's book: Something in the Froth - FREE eBook and paperback coming 8/11/26!  https://www.wheredidyouseegod.com/something-in-the-froth 🌟Featured Hope Unlocked Partner: Reliht Welcome to Reliht, the brand new and easy-to-use, online no-chat tool you didn’t know you needed, but will love.
