This is when we take one day a week, as God did when He created, to prepare for the next 6 days of work. Resting like God did helps us heal, be restored, and prepare us for the next week. Take a listen as we talk about how we try to rest in our chaotic world today.
This week, we discuss how we find support for ourselves and supporting those we lead. We all need support. As pastors, we need friends to help us decompress by talking and letting us be ourselves.

We then discuss how our prayer lives help create the rule of life for us. ...
