Unhurried Living | Helping Christians Rest Deeper & Lead Better

How do you trust God when the future feels fragile?

In this conversation, Tim and Hilary Timmons share their journey of living with an incurable cancer diagnosis and discovering a deeper, more intentional faith along the way. Rather than shrinking their lives, suffering became an invitation into daily life with Jesus.

Together we explore spiritual growth through hardship, the tension of grief and gratitude, marriage under pressure, and what it really means to follow Jesus beyond Sunday church services.

This episode speaks to anyone navigating fear of the future, chronic illness, uncertainty, or the quiet longing for more in the Christian life. It’s a conversation about hope, resilience, spiritual formation, and waking up to the presence of God in ordinary moments.

If you’re searching for peace in uncertainty or wondering whether joy is possible in the middle of hardship, this episode offers a grounded and honest path forward.

Strength is easy to admire. But in the kingdom of God, strength is not where leadership begins.

In this episode of the Unhurried Living Podcast, Alan explores a different vision of Christian leadership—one rooted not in self-sufficiency, but in shared weakness, daily dependence, and confidence in a living Christ.

Drawing from the witness of the Trappist monks of Algeria, the wisdom of Andrew Murray and A. W. Tozer, and insights from recovery communities, Alan reflects on what it means to lead from honesty rather than performance. If Jesus is truly alive, then leadership is not about managing a legacy—it is about participating in his present life.

In this episode, you’ll discover:
Why shared weakness is essential for spiritual leadership
• The difference between serving a memory and walking with a living Christ
• What Andrew Murray called the “burning heart”
• Why spiritual receptivity may be the defining quality of enduring leaders
• A simple daily prayer that reshapes how you lead

If you’re feeling the quiet pressure to hold everything together, this episode will gently remind you that you were never meant to carry it alone.

Why do so many capable leaders struggle to lead with integrity, humility, and discernment over the long haul?
In this episode, Alan Fadling talks with Jason Jensen, vice president of spiritual foundations for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of Formed to Lead. Drawing from Luke 3–4, Jason invites leaders to recover a vision of leadership rooted not in performance, but in spiritual formation—where identity precedes assignment, wilderness becomes a place of renewal, and discernment matters more than drive.
Together, they explore how leaders are shaped by pressure, why rest restores authority, and how a life deeply formed by love can sustain faithful leadership over a lifetime.

What do you hold onto when God feels distant, faith feels fragile, and life feels overwhelming?

In this episode of the Unhurried Living Podcast, Gem Fadling welcomes author Whitney Lowe for a rich conversation about God’s steadfast love, spiritual identity, and the quiet work of healing and restoration. Drawing from Scripture and Whitney’s book Called Back to Who You Are, this episode explores what it means to return to God, not through striving, but through trust, rest, and remembering who you truly are.

This conversation is especially meaningful for anyone navigating spiritual burnout, doubt, or disconnection, and longing to experience God’s love in a deeper, more grounded way.
