Discipline. It’s not glamorous, it’s not fun, and let’s be honest… most of us avoid it when we can. But today on the podcast, Jackie and I dive into what Hebrews 12:11 really means: “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful later on. However, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.”

We chat about how discipline isn’t just about doing the hard thing—it’s also about letting God, the Holy Spirit, and even the people around us guide us when we don’t see our own blind spots. From navigating a no-spend February, to building habits that feel boring or repetitive, we unpack why these small, sometimes uncomfortable choices actually produce lasting peace and a deeper relationship with Jesus.

If you’re trying to live faithfully day by day, manage life’s mess, or just want a little encouragement to keep going even when it’s hard, this episode is for you. Let’s talk discipline, faithfulness, and the slow, steady way God shapes us into His image.
