Do you feel forced to choose between building a successful real estate business and being fully present in the areas of life that matter most? Are you a high-performing Christian realtor feeling worn down by the real estate grind—trying to follow God while the industry pushes hustle at all costs? Does your business look great on paper, but your work-life balance and peace at home feel off?
I’m so glad you’re here.
The Faithful Agent is a podcast for real estate agents who want to grow a successful business without burning out or losing what matters most. This show helps you build real estate systems and structure that put you back in control of your time—so you can grow your income, stay present at home, and experience real peace in business.
Inside the podcast, you’ll learn how to:
- Build systems and leverage that help you sell more homes without working more hours
- Create predictable income for realtors so financial pressure doesn’t follow you home
- Replace burnout and the real estate grind with intentional, faith-driven business growth
The goal isn’t just becoming a more successful realtor.
It’s building a business and schedule you actually enjoy now—not someday—one that lets you win at work without losing what matters most.
Hey, I’m Garrett—husband, dad of five, and high-producing real estate agent.
For years, I chased the industry’s definition of success—more deals, more money, more recognition—while quietly missing family dinners and date nights. I was productive, but I was becoming a burned-out realtor, and my faith and peace were taking a back seat.
I realized that if I wanted real freedom in this business, I couldn’t just work harder—I needed a solid framework, better structure, and smarter real estate systems.
So I built a plan that honored my faith and my family, not just my production goals. A few simple, intentional strategies allowed me to grow my business, sell a high volume of homes, and still be present at the dinner table every night.
Now, through realtor coaching and this podcast, I help other real estate agents do the same.
If you’re ready to build structure that honors God—so your business can grow while your family still gets the best of you—you’re in the right place.
So grab your coffee, dust off that Bible, and let’s dive in.

168 | Tuesday Shorts: Trust in the Lord Forever — How Christian Real Estate Agents Build Unshakeable Faith Through Every Market Season
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When the market slows, the phones go quiet, and doubt creeps in — that is the moment that reveals what you are truly built on. As a real estate agent seeking work-life balance, one of the most powerful things you can do in a slow season isn't grind harder. It's trust deeper. Garrett Maroon delivers a short but powerfully grounding message about what it means to trust the Lord forever — especially when your pipeline doesn't look the way you want it to.
This episode speaks directly to the tension between the pressure to produce and the peace that only comes from surrender. The work-life balance you're chasing is not a scheduling problem — it's a trust problem. And this short gives you the reset you need to return to faith when anxiety is trying to drive your day.
You'll hear insight on:
- How to trust God during slow real estate seasons without giving up on growth
- The mindset shift that replaces anxiety with sustainable peace
- Why your work-life balance depends on your trust foundation, not just your calendar
- How to keep moving forward with confidence when results feel uncertain

What's up, faithful agents? Welcome to another Tuesday short episode today. I'm just going to get real. And I was going to say dirty, but that, that doesn't sound correct. So we're not going to do that, but we're just going to get real today. As always on these Tuesday short episodes, I do want to start with a good Christian joke. Why is David considered the best babysitter in the Bible? He rocked Goliath to sleep. That's funny. I like that one too soon. I don't know, you know, it's like, you know, 3000 years ago or whatever. But today I want to dive into this honest, real topic. I'm just going to level with you all. I've been struggling and anxious about money for potentially the first time in my life and in the Lord's kindness, the first time in my life where I right now, currently while we're recording, many of you know who have listened, I've got one agent and one admin and I let my agent take all the deals. Well, I decided this year I'd take about five transactions myself just to, you know, stay in the game, keep myself active, that kind of thing. Well, I've got my first deal right now with a client that I'm working with, a buyer that I'm working with. We've written multiple offers. We've lost multiple times. And the truth is, being completely honest with you all, I really need this win. I have struggled because I feel like I just need a win in something and I'm not getting them. And it's been tough. Not only has it been tough, for me emotionally, mentally, it's been tough just on my bank account, you know, just being real with you all. And that's been a struggle. And I woke up this morning, totally excited about the possibilities and what could come and some ideas that I had, went and showed another house to this client this morning. And he told me in the house that they were actually considering just staying where they're staying, where they are not selling their home and just send their kid to private school. They're moving because of schools. And I gotta admit, my first reaction though, I said, of course, I totally understand. In my heart, I was like, please don't do that. I have not been trusting the Lord very well, if I'm completely honest, and just giving him my total trust that he's gonna provide financially for my family. I've been really struggling with that and reminding myself, trying to remind myself that the Lord is my shepherd and he will take care of me. But it's been tough. So right now we've got an offer out that in 20 minutes I'll find out if we won. And man have I bothered that agent so many times. Are we still in the lead? Are we still in the lead? What do we need to do? I've got my phone. And the truth is it's not out of a desire to serve my client. It's out of the desire to get paid. And I'm just leveling with y 'all. That's real. Well, my wife knows that's been difficult recently. And so she sent me Isaiah 26, three to four. And it says, you keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you because he trusts in you trust in the Lord forever for the Lord. God is an everlasting rock. And that hits me even now as I read it, it's hard to trust in the Lord. It is hard to be in a position where you feel like you're not winning. You're not getting very many wins. We don't want to be in a position, I know, where we're serving clients with our own selves in mind, with our own end, right? The desire to make money and get paid and all of those things. We don't want to serve people that way. But leveling with y 'all, it's been tough because I think a lot of us feel that it's a weird market. It's a tough market, all the stuff going on. And so here's me coming clean to y 'all. but also saying, I see you and I hear you and that's why this community exists. The truth of the matter is, as we read Isaiah 26, three to four, you keep him in perfect peace whose mind has stayed on you because he trusts in you. What that means is the Lord is the you part of that. You Lord keep us in perfect peace when our mind is on the Lord. That's what that means, because we trust in the Lord. The challenge that I, and then it says, trust in the Lord forever for the Lord God is an everlasting rock. The challenge that I have, the reason I feel like I have not been in perfect peace, and maybe you feel the same way. because my mind is not stayed on the Lord. My mind is not on the Lord. My trust is not in Him. Admittedly, I feel better when I wake up and I check my bank account and I feel like there's money there. Admittedly, I often will say that my mind is on the Lord when in reality it's so many different places. You know, we just interviewed Michelle with She Works His Way and that interview will come out soon. And she said, Back in the day, they only had one word for priority. It was priority. It always meant one. And now we use the word priorities and only came out the past few decades where we changed it to now it's multiple things, right? We distract ourselves with what we think is going to make us feel better. Netflix, food, eating, drinking, whatever it is, we distract ourselves so we don't have to feel the pain of what's going on. I know for me, it's difficult when I'm in a tough or anxious moment. My natural reaction, again, just being completely honest with y 'all, my natural reaction is I either wanna watch something, a YouTube video or whatever, or I wanna scroll Facebook because it can feel like it just numbs whatever's going on instead of, and this is where our heart should be, faithful agents. Instead of saying, Lord, this is hard, remind my soul that I can trust in you forever because you are an everlasting rock. You put me in perfect peace. That's hard. But that's my encouragement to me, to all of us in this short episode. I know it's not tactical, but that was just what's on my heart and on my mind is that reality. is when you have that moment of anxiety today, when you have the moment of stress, when you have the moment of doubt, I hope that you will do one of two things. First, I hope you will go to the Lord and you will say, Lord, my heart is anxious and I know that is not from you. Will you please calm my soul that I may trust in you? And number two, that you have a brother or sister, a faithful agent that you reach out to and just say, I need your help. Like Moses needed Aaron, right? We see that all throughout scripture. There was a right hand person. You can go to someone in this community. You can go to someone that you know and you're close with and say, look, here's the truth. I'm not trusting very well. I need you to encourage my soul. Faithful agents, I love you all dearly. My heart and passion is so deep for this Christian real estate community. My desire for all of us is that we understand that the temporal is nowhere near as glorious as the eternal. And that's hard. Anxiety, stress, those things, that's not part of God's world. It's not part of His plan for us, but it's real things. and we're here in it together. So I hope that maybe it's helpful in any way to encourage you all, trust in the Lord forever for the Lord God is an everlasting rock. I love you, faithful agents, hang in there.
