The Discipline of Simplicity - Season 4, Episode 140

Do you feel torn apart by too many obligations, constantly anxious despite your attempts at better organization? Pastor Dorrell argues that our chronic busyness and accumulation of possessions fundamentally trouble our souls in ways that mere efficiency cannot solve. Drawing from Ecclesiastes 7:29 and the account of Martha and Mary in Luke 10, he contends that God designed us for singular focus and simplicity, not endless multiplication of responsibilities and things. The sermon challenges listeners to ruthlessly eliminate hurry, declutter their lives—finances, schedules, homes, and digital noise—and reorder their existence around their truest priority: intimacy with God and the peace that follows.
