Join us this week as Raechel and Amanda kick off Week 1 of I Will Give You Rest with pastor, Matt Smallbone. We serve a God who has acknowledged the limitations of our humanity by providing for us in them—reminding us of who He is and who we are not. Recognizing rest as a defiance to so many of our cultural systems, Raechel, Amanda, and Matt encourage one another to consider the creativity and faith it takes to accept the Lord’s invitation to rest.

Show Notes:
I simply know that it [Sabbath] is the day God has created for us to celebrate. It is the one day that we are most uniquely called to play in beauty and freedom. If we ignore or misuse that day, then we are far less human than we could be. —Dan Allender (Sabbath)
