Presence Over Performance: Bible Bits with Kimberly Miller

About this episode

Kimberly F. Miller discusses the importance of spiritual presence over performance and how it can alleviate burnout.

What if your spiritual exhaustion isn't a time management problem, but instead a presence problem? In this powerful episode of People of Distinction, retired federal research scientist and author Kimberly F. Miller joins to unpack why so many of us are burned out, spiritually starved, and carrying crosses God never asked us to carry alone, and how getting into His presence changes everything. Drawing from her book Bible Bits: In His Presence , Kim delivers a conversation that is equal parts raw, real, and life-giving. Get your copy at watwm.org or wherever books are sold.
