Why Less Is More: Pursuing Simplicity in a Culture of Clutter

 • Clark Frailey • Series: The Power of No

In today’s episode, Pastor Clark Frailey tackles one of the most pressing issues of modern life: excess. Drawing on cultural examples—from TV shows like Hoarders to our endlessly packed calendars—Pastor Clark explores how our obsession with “more” leaves us overwhelmed, cluttered, and often chasing happiness that never quite arrives. Through honest stories and spiritual insight, he shares a counter-cultural path inspired by Jesus’ teachings: the invitation to simplicity. Why is less often more? How can we find real joy by letting go of the things that weigh us down, both physically and mentally? And what does it mean to make space for what matters most? Tune in as we consider how saying “no” to excess can open the door to peace, deeper faith, and a life centered on trust and purpose.
