  • A Christian Way to Overcome Procrastination (Start with Prayer)
    Mar 11 2026

    Some tasks quietly sit in the back of your mind for days… sometimes weeks. You know they need to be done, but starting feels harder than it should. The longer you wait, the heavier it feels, and that quiet weight can steal a surprising amount of peace.

    Many people assume procrastination is simply laziness. But often it’s something deeper — feeling overwhelmed, fearing failure, or not knowing where to begin. And when that happens, even faithful, capable people can find themselves stuck.

    In this episode of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson gently explores why procrastination happens and how prayer can help break the cycle. Drawing on his experience running a marketing business and training sales professionals for over 27 years, Ken shares an honest moment that many people find surprising: even someone who teaches others to take action sometimes struggles to put things off. Through practical encouragement and simple prayer, this episode offers a calm, faith-filled way to move forward one small step at a time.

    You’ll discover how faith in everyday life can help shift the way you approach tasks that feel overwhelming — and how inviting God into the moment can bring clarity and peace.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • How procrastination is often connected to fear or overwhelm, not laziness
    • A simple “first five minutes” prayer that helps you start when something feels too big
    • Why being honest with God about what you're avoiding can bring freedom
    • How taking one small step today can restore peace and confidence

    If you’ve been feeling stuck, pressured, or weighed down by something you keep putting off, this episode offers a gentle reminder that you don’t have to face it alone. God often meets us in the first small step.

    Take a few minutes to listen, and if this episode encourages you, consider sharing it with someone who might need the same reminder this week.

  • Honouring Jesus in Your Daily Work and Ordinary Life
    Mar 10 2026

    Some days feel like a long list of ordinary tasks — emails to answer, meals to cook, laundry to fold, work to finish. Life moves quickly, and it can start to feel like faith belongs in quiet moments of prayer or on Sunday mornings, while the rest of the week is simply about getting things done.

    But the truth is, your everyday work and chores matter deeply to God.

    In this episode of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson gently explores how everyday work — even the most ordinary tasks — can become a meaningful way to honour Jesus. With calm encouragement and practical wisdom, Ken helps you see how faith in everyday life isn’t about doing extraordinary things, but about bringing a faithful heart to the simple responsibilities already in front of you.

    This episode is a reminder that Christian living doesn’t happen only in special moments. It happens while preparing meals, caring for family, working faithfully, and serving others in quiet ways throughout the week.

    You’ll discover how to:

    • See your daily work as something that matters to God • Turn ordinary chores into small acts of worship • Bring faith and trust in God into everyday responsibilities • Find deeper peace and purpose in daily life

    With gentle Scripture and practical encouragement, Ken reminds you that nothing done with love and faithfulness is ever wasted. Even the smallest task can become an offering to God when it’s done with the right heart.

    If you’ve ever wondered how to live out your Christian faith in everyday life, this episode will help you see the quiet beauty in the ordinary moments of your week.

    Take a few minutes to listen, breathe, and be encouraged — and if this episode helps you, consider sharing it with someone who could use the same reminder this week.
