Ep. 10 - What Is Your Why
from Grace in the Breaking · host Elizabeth Everett
Send us Fan MailElizabeth Everett challenges listeners to examine the real reason behind their drive, endurance, and faith. Many people feel stuck, burned out, or discouraged not because they are weak, but because their “why” has been built on approval, success, comfort, or validation instead of Christ.Drawing from her own journey through burnout, divorce, and seasons of hope deferred, Elizabeth explains how surface level motivations eventually collapse under pressure. When identity and purpose are rooted in human approval, criticism and delay can cause people to lose momentum and retreat into fear or isolation.She contrasts those temporary motivations with a kingdom centered why anchored in obedience to Jesus. Referencing scripture and the example of Christ enduring the cross, Elizabeth reminds listeners that a Christ centered purpose can withstand disappointment, pruning seasons, and spiritual warfare. True endurance comes from surrender, not striving.This message calls believers to stop chasing validation and begin asking God what their true purpose is. When your why is anchored in Jesus, obedience replaces burnout and faith carries you through every season.Learn more about: Advocates for Africa & Happy Horizons Children's RanchGrab your copy of Elizabeth’s new book, The Breaking: The Season That Almost Took Me Out and the God Who Didn't, here!Contact Elizabeth Everett: Website: graceinthebreaking.com Email: [email protected] Instagram: @graceinthebreaking YouTube: @GraceintheBreaking Resources & Links:Nashville Anti-Human Trafficking Coalition (NAHT)Educate to Recognize ProgramThe Life Recovery BibleKing James Version BibleAdditional Resources for Parents and EducatorsConnect with the Coalition:NAHT FacebookNAHT Instagram
