• Why You Might Need Rest Before Making Big Decisions
    Feb 11 2026

    Trying to decide things while exhausted often makes everything harder.

    In this episode of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson gently explores why tiredness clouds our judgment — and why Jesus so often invites rest before giving direction.

    If you’re feeling worn down, overwhelmed, or stuck at a crossroads, this episode is a quiet reminder that you’re not failing. You’re human. And God understands that exhaustion narrows our perspective, amplifies fear, and makes even small choices feel urgent and confusing.

    Ken speaks honestly and pastorally about the pressure many of us feel to “figure it all out” while running on empty. He offers reassurance that pausing is not a lack of faith, waiting is not disobedience, and rest is not something we earn after making the right choice. Often, rest is where clarity begins.

    Drawing from the life of Jesus, this episode shows how withdrawal, quiet, and restoration frequently come before action — not after. You’ll hear a guilt-free invitation to slow down, to stop forcing answers late at night, and to trust that God isn’t in a rush with your life.

    This episode is especially for you if you’re:

    • Overthinking decisions when you’re already exhausted
    • Feeling pressure to act before you’re ready
    • Wondering if rest means you’re falling behind
    • Needing reassurance that God is patient and present

    You’ll come away with practical, gentle steps for the week ahead, emotional reassurance for your tired heart, and a simple truth to hold onto: you don’t have to decide everything today. God is already there, and sometimes the wisest next step is rest.

    A calm, hopeful episode to listen to slowly — like a trusted friend reminding you to breathe.

  • What to Do When You Feel Pressured to Have It All Figured Out
    Feb 10 2026

    Pressure to have answers often creates more anxiety, not clarity.

    Do you ever feel like you’re meant to have life sorted by now? Like you should know where you’re heading, what decision to make, or what the next season is meant to look like? And yet inside, you still feel unsure?

    In this episode of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson gently speaks into that quiet pressure so many of us carry — the pressure to have it all figured out.

    This conversation is for you if you feel stuck between choices, tired of comparing yourself to others, or worn down by the feeling that you’re somehow behind. With warmth and honesty, Ken reminds you that faith was never meant to come with a full map — just enough light for the next step.

    In this episode, you’ll be encouraged to:

    • Let go of the idea that clarity must come before obedience
    • Understand why feeling unsure doesn’t mean your faith is weak
    • Find peace in taking one small, faithful step at a time
    • Replace pressure with gentler questions that invite trust

    Ken speaks like a trusted friend — not with quick fixes or heavy words — but with reassurance, practical wisdom, and hope you can carry into the week ahead.

    If you’re feeling overwhelmed, behind, or unsure about what’s next, this episode will meet you right where you are.

  • How to Trust God When You Don’t Know What’s Next
    Feb 9 2026

    Not knowing what’s next can make faith feel shaky.

    When the future feels unclear, it’s easy to feel anxious, stuck, or quietly overwhelmed. You might still believe in God — but you’re not sure how to trust Him when there’s no clear plan, no timeline, and no obvious answers.

    In this episode of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson speaks gently and honestly about what it means to trust God in seasons of uncertainty. Not with clichés or quick fixes — but with real reassurance for real life.

    Drawing from Scripture and a deeply personal story from early in his marriage, Ken reflects on a time when the pressure was real, the money had run out, and the future felt completely unknown. It’s a reminder that trusting God often happens one step at a time — right in the middle of not knowing.

    In this episode, you’ll be encouraged to:

    • Trust God when the path ahead feels unclear
    • Find peace without having all the answers
    • Focus on the next step, not the whole journey
    • Let go of pressure and lean into God’s presence

    This is a calm, hopeful conversation for anyone who feels caught in the in-between — waiting, wondering, and doing their best to keep going.

    If you’re facing uncertainty right now, this episode is for you.

  • How to Start Again When You Don’t Know Where to Begin
    Feb 8 2026

    Starting again can feel hopeful and frightening at the same time.

    If you feel like you’re beginning again but you’re tired, unsure, or afraid of getting it wrong, this episode is for you. Jesus is not disappointed in you, and He’s not in a hurry.

    Starting again with God doesn’t mean rushing, fixing everything, or having instant clarity. New beginnings with Jesus are often quiet and gentle, not dramatic or pressured.

    In this episode, we reflect on the fear of making mistakes again, the weight of past experiences, and the freedom of taking just one small step with Him.

    This is an invitation to slow down, be present with Jesus, and trust that you don’t have to carry the whole future today — only the next step.

  • How to Find Strength When You’re Feeling Exhausted
    Feb 3 2026

    Have you been waking up already tired, knowing the day hasn’t even started yet?

    Do you ever wonder how long you can keep showing up — for work, for family, for others — when your energy feels low, and your heart feels stretched?

    Maybe you’re doing all the right things on the outside, but inside you feel worn thin.

    In this episode of The Week Ahead, Ken Robinson speaks gently into that very place.

    Finding Strength When You’re Tired but Still Showing Up is a quiet, reassuring conversation for anyone who feels exhausted but can’t simply stop. It’s for the parent, the carer, the worker, the friend — the person who keeps going even when it feels hard.

    Ken discusses the kind of tiredness that sleep doesn’t fix. The tiredness that comes from responsibility, from caring deeply, from staying steady through long seasons. He reminds you that God sees the faithfulness that often goes unnoticed — the small, daily acts of turning up when it would be easier to withdraw.

    This episode doesn’t push you to try harder or dig deeper. Instead, it invites you to slow down, breathe, and find strength that doesn’t depend on your own reserves. Ken reflects on how God meets us right where we are — not with pressure, but with grace that’s enough for today.

    You’ll be encouraged to release the weight of carrying everything at once, to take the next small faithful step, and to trust that God’s strength often shows up as “just enough”.

    If you’re feeling empty, stretched, or quietly weary, this episode offers calm reassurance and practical hope for the days ahead.

    Take a few minutes to listen. Let yourself reflect. And carry something gentle and steady with you into the week ahead.
