What If the Crushing Is the Blessing? | Table 61

with Jason Stuhlmiller

We set up to sell furniture and ended up recording one of the most honest conversations we've had in a while. No studio, no stage, just three of us on the floor of an empty garage at The Table 61 in Harrisonburg, Virginia. It started with one question. What if the crushing is the blessing? From there we got into the olive press, the wine that has to age, why Jesus wasn't in a hurry to be seen, and the trap of chasing the destination while missing the process that's forming you. I was honest about the last six months, coming back expecting something to take off and running into a wall instead. Jason Stuhlmiller of The Table 61 brought the teaching on the debtor's ethic, the debt we put on ourselves that God never handed us, and how we've gotten better at earning than receiving. We landed on love, influence, and the new command in John 13. If you've been doing everything right and still feel stuck in the pressure, this one's for you.
