Quit Quitting

Gabe Baker Season 1 Episode 129

Today I'm joined by Bro. Matthew Critcher and we're talking about the epidemic of quitting.

In a world where "quiet quitting" has become trendy and commitment seems optional, we face a growing challenge in ministry: the normalization of giving up. This mindset has crept into our churches, affecting everything from volunteer retention to spiritual growth. As leaders, we must champion a counter-cultural message that celebrates perseverance, commitment, and faithful endurance. 

Remember, Jesus himself faced the temptation to quit in Gethsemane. His response - "Nevertheless, not my will but yours be done" - provides our model for pushing through difficulty toward divine purpose. 

Some of the things we try to cover:

  • Recognize the Signs of Quitting Culture
  • Reframe Difficulties as Growth Opportunities
  • Champion Long-Term Commitment
  • The Art of Persistence
