About this episode

Ryan Wekenman discusses how focusing on oneself can lead to feeling stuck and overwhelmed, and presents Jesus' way to find true freedom.

This message from Ryan Wekenman gets to the root of why so many of us feel stuck, exhausted, and overwhelmed. Our world tells us transformation starts with you—self-help, self-improvement, self-focus. But the more we focus on ourselves, the heavier life becomes. Jesus offers a better way. When you stop making life about you, you finally experience the freedom you’ve been looking for. This isn’t about trying harder. It’s about getting free.
