Episode 189: No Rest for the Weary… Right??

February 7, 2023

It's ok to just "be".

John just returned from a healing retreat! And he has a lot to say from it… starting with: GOD’S CRUCIAL COMMAND FOR US TO REST. We often push ourselves until we are exhausted… we rest in order to work when it should actually be the opposite. The world makes us think that if we aren’t busy we are wasting our time; but true rest is its own act of obedience.

In this episode you will hear John and Victor say:

  • The relentless desire to consume & acquire
  • Why are we feeling guilty about following the first commandment?
  • Our fear of being still & our desire for power
  • It is not about what I can achieve
