Your phone won’t stop buzzing. Your to do list feels like a browser with forty open tabs.So what do you do when focus feels impossible?In this episode, Jonathan Kindler redefines attention as more than a productivity skill. Scripture treats it as worship and stewardship. Drawing from Colossians 3:2 and Psalm 16:8, Jonathan explores why the Bible speaks in terms of what we “set” our minds on, and how scattered attention often reflects a scattered heart.Through a blend of biblical insight and clinical understanding, he explains how dopamine loops, overstimulation, and decision fatigue pull us in a hundred directions at once. Then he offers a different path forward: simple, worshipful attention. You will learn practical tools like sensory resets, single tasking as worship, and the “one thing” rule from Luke 10:42, where Mary chooses the better part in a room full of demands.If your thoughts have felt noisy, fragmented, or out of your control, this conversation reframes focus not as a personality trait, but as a way of walking with God in a world that constantly pulls your eyes away.Because attention is never just about getting things done.It is about who you keep before you.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/MEADP8OUjCj9SvtpIBcdnKe1rMXZVlJX3tg2RXbT4IQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS83ZDQw/ZjIxN2VmMmZhNjQ5/YTg4MmI0OTZjNmFh/MGQ0MC5KUEVH.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
