Prescription for Purpose

4 Ways God Prunes You to Prevent Burnout: Understanding Spiritual Pacing & the Productivity Gospel™


Listen Later

Feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or like God changed the plan on you? In this episode of Prescription for Purpose, we break down the four ways God prunes us to restore spiritual pace and protect our purpose: removal, redirection, reconstruction, and rest. This teaching dives deep into how pruning shows up in your emotions, your nervous system, and your calendar—especially for high-functioning women recovering from the Productivity Gospel™.

We explore:

  • Why that closed door wasn’t rejection—it was preservation
  • What it means when your motivation disappears out of nowhere
  • How God reorders your gifts and goals without discarding your purpose
  • Why true rest is a spiritual reset, not just a nap

You’ll also hear practical questions to discern what season you’re in, plus get access to the free pruning quiz inside the Spiritual Well App to uncover your unique pruning type.

If you’re asking, “Why is this falling apart when I’m being obedient?” — this episode is your answer.
