The Power of Slowing Down: Defying Hustle Culture and Deepening Our Relationship with God

Episode 17 (Recorded on 8-9-2023)

In this episode of the I’d Rather Be a Buffalo Podcast, Kevin Gregg and Doug Riggle explore the power of slowing down and defying hustle culture. There’s even a lesson learned from the making of Star Wars.

Prioritizing relationships over checklists leads to well-being, especially when your relationship with God is a main life focus.

Kevin and Doug talk about recognizing the seasons when focus is directed away from our closest relationships. However, balance during those hard times is crucial.

Drawing insights from the world of entertainment, Kevin shares the story of George Lucas and how his hyper-focus on his vision for the Star Wars trilogy led to a negative impact for his marriage.

Examining passages from Acts 4 and 5, Kevin and Doug discuss the concept of "family-ism" and how putting God first in all aspects of life can naturally flow over into family, work, and community life.
