The last two weeks, we've gone deep—identifying our triggers, examining our false gods, and tracing our reactions back to childhood wounds and false beliefs. Heavy stuff. Important stuff.

But this week? We're talking about the triggers that aren't tied to trauma. The trivial things that still set us off: slow WiFi, traffic, plans changing, someone chewing loudly, technology failing at the worst moment.

Here's the uncomfortable truth: spiritual maturity isn't measured by what you know—it's revealed by how we respond to life's minor irritations. And right now, most of us are being controlled by things that don't matter.

We’ll discover that how we handle trivial frustrations reveals our true maturity. We explore why small things trigger us (we're maxed out, we've lost perspective, we're spiritually immature), and what it costs us when we let them control us—wasted energy, damaged relationships, and missed kingdom opportunities.

The gospel confronts our belief that we deserve comfort and convenience. Jesus endured the ultimate inconvenience—the cross—so we could be free. When we're secure in what Christ has done, trivial things lose their power because we're no longer looking to circumstances for peace, to convenience for security, or to control for safety.
