Climbing the Wrong Mountain

from Gratitude and Growth · host Mike Marcus

Have you ever chased a goal with everything you had, only to reach the top and feel empty? This episode of Gratitude and Growth is called Climbing the Wrong Mountain, and it is about that moment when you realize the success you were striving for was not the fulfillment you were actually after. I share one of my favorite parables, the Fisherman and the Businessman, and explain how easy it is to spend your life climbing toward someone else's definition of enough while the peace you are craving might already be right in front of you. If you have been hustling hard but feeling unfulfilled, if something in your spirit feels off, or if you are tired of running without knowing why, this is your moment of insight. Listen in and let us make sure the mountain you are climbing is the one God actually called you to.
