## Resource

Jesus told the church in Ephesus that they were still doing faithful work, but they had left their first love. It is possible to keep serving and praying while something inside grows cold. Chris understands that tension. In this episode, he talks about the season when his prayers felt like they were hitting the ceiling and the spiritual habits that once helped no longer felt effective. Rather than treating that wall as proof of failure, Chris offers a way to face it honestly, stop trying to outperform it, and let God and trusted people meet us there.
