Motivating Moments

Growth Doesn’t Happen Accidentally

Steve Evans Episode 25

Growth rarely happens by chance. Whether in your work, leadership, or personal life, meaningful progress requires intention.

In this first episode of 2026, Motivating Moments enters a new season with a weekly format designed to deliver short, focused encouragement you can apply throughout your week. Pastor Steve Evans introduces this updated approach and explores a foundational principle that applies across every area of life: growth doesn’t happen automatically—it must be chosen.

Drawing from timeless wisdom rooted in Scripture, this episode examines why time and experience alone don’t guarantee development, how comfort and routine can quietly stall progress, and what it means to choose direction over drift. You’ll be challenged to reflect on the small, intentional decisions that shape long-term growth and create momentum over time.

If you’re looking to grow with clarity, purpose, and consistency—this episode sets the tone for the year ahead.
