Tired, Drained, Distracted? Take Back Your Time and Energy (Before It Steals Your Spiritual Growth)

Ever feel like there's never enough time, energy, or focus to grow spiritually? You’re not lazy. You’re just spent. And you're not alone. In this episode of The Known Disciple Project, Mark Hummel pulls back the curtain on one of the most common struggles among growth-minded disciples of Jesus: mental fatigue and chronic distraction. If you’ve ever said, “I want to grow, I just don’t have the bandwidth,” this one’s for you. Mark shares his personal journey from content zombie to focused disciple, breaking down how we can reclaim our capacity and get serious about the habits that lead to transformation. With biblical insights and practical strategies, this episode is packed with tools to help you protect your time, refuel your soul, and create rhythms that actually support spiritual growth. From high-performance hacks to Sabbath rest, you’ll learn how to stop running on empty and start growing with purpose. What You’ll Learn: → Why multitasking is killing your energy, and what to do instead → How time blocking and batching can give you back hours of focus → What it means to truly refuel (hint: it’s not just sleep) → The difference between solitude and isolation, and why it matters spiritually → How to create a Sabbath rhythm that refreshes your soul “The amount of things we consume is completely irrelevant to what we do with those things.” -Mark Hummel Write down one or two spiritual rhythms you want more time and energy for.
