Why I Quit Working For God with Tim Timmons

from Maverick River · host Tim Lukei and Eric Heard

What if the hardest seasons of your life weren’t obstacles to your faith, but the very things intended to soften your heart?In this episode of the Maverick River Podcast, we sit down with Tim Timmons—a man who has lived with a Stage 4 cancer diagnosis for over 25 years. Tim shares the profound shift that happened when he stopped "working for God" and started simply living with Him.**In this conversation, we explore:*** **The "10,000 Minutes":** Why following Jesus is about the every day, not just the 80 minutes on Sunday.* **Finding Joy in the Manure:** Tim’s powerful analogy for how life’s hardest "manure" moments are often the best fertilizer for growth.* **Surrendering the Kingdom:** Moving from building our own empires to joining Jesus in His.* **Soul Tiredness:** How to navigate faith when you're physically and spiritually exhausted.Tim’s story is a disruptive, beautiful, and authentic look at what it means to follow Jesus through physical suffering and "soul tiredness." If you’ve ever felt like your spiritual life was a chore or a checklist, this conversation is for you.**Connect with Maverick River Collective:*** Join the Collective: https://www.maverickriver.com/* Follow us for more stories of transformation: https://www.instagram.com/maverickrivercollective/
