Sometimes working with the Anabaptist culture feels like starring in my very own “Jerry Maguire” movie moment…IYKYK

“Help me… help you!”

Because the truth is — growth is slow. Trust requires relationship and even then is squirrelly…. Especially if we’re not “in person”. Assumptions and Offense are normal and Fear is extremely crippling.

Often it feels like pulling teeth.. which, if it can be avoided.. it will be.

So the Freedom takes huge amounts of time and energy. Walking through layer after layer of unlearning and breakthrough is exhausting.

What makes it really wild is how often the growth doesn’t get recognized. Huge shifts happen, but it feels “normal” to them now. They forget how shut down or stuck they were.

Meanwhile, we’re on the sidelines like:

👉🏽 “Did you just hear yourself? That’s freedom talking!”

👉🏽 “You made that decision without worrying what others think of you — that’s HUGE.”

👉🏽”You’ve increased your income, gotten married, and are growing your family!

*Big Wins!”

👉🏽 “You felt the fear, and did it anyway, well done!”

And the list goes on..

Theres nothing glamorous about it… and often its navigating a mess.

But when the lightbulb finally turns on and they see it for themselves — that’s the GOLD🌟

Exhaustion turns into joy.

And suddenly, the marathon was worth every step.
