Dad Tired

You Can’t Change the World If Your Car’s a Mess


Listen Later

What if the clutter around you- your messy car, chaotic desk, or unfinished projects—was actually revealing something deeper happening inside you?

In this episode, Jerrad challenges men to look beneath the surface and see how the outward disorder in our lives often mirrors the inward chaos of our souls. Before stepping into the mission God’s calling us to, He’s inviting us to bring order, attention, and faithfulness to the small things right in front of us.

Through personal stories, honest reflection, and a practical framework, Jerrad helps listeners see that spiritual leadership starts with stewardship. You can’t lead your family well, love your wife faithfully, or change the world for Christ if your life is cluttered and chaotic.

With a mix of conviction and grace, this episode will help you:

  • Recognize how outward messes reveal inward disorder
  • Understand why God calls men to faithfulness in the small things first
  • Learn seven practical ways to clean up “sloppy” areas of your life
  • See how physical order can become a daily act of spiritual worship
  • Prepare your heart for the bigger mission God’s about to call you into

Whether you feel distracted, disorganized, or just stuck, this episode is a wake-up call to bring order to the chaos—and become the kind of man God can trust with more.

Prayer:
“God, is there anything in my life that grieves You?”
