Fall is here, and as we prepare for the colder months, we’re reflecting on how to balance work and rest. Whether it’s winterizing your home or recharging your spirit, finding balance is key to living well.

In this episode, we talk about:

• ️ Spiritual Renewal: How rest isn’t just physical—it's about spiritual refreshment through prayer, meditation, and Scripture (Matthew 11:28-30)
• Work and Rest Cycles: The rhythm of life, working in the fall to rest in winter, much like the biblical principle of Sabbath
• Technology's Impact: How increased expectations through tech have disrupted our ability to truly rest
• Burnout: How overworking can lead to diminishing returns and what studies say about the dangers of long hours
• Practical Tips: Scheduling rest periods, turning off notifications, and finding time for family and hobbies

Join us as we discuss why rest isn't just a luxury—it's a necessity for your body, mind, and soul.

Need a break? Let’s talk about how to make rest a priority in your life.

Description: ️ In honor of National Day of Encouragement, we decided to flip the script and talk about some of our biggest church pet peeves! From awkward handshake time to repetitive worship songs, we’re airing out the things that make us cringe in church.

In this episode, we’ll dive into some funny, relatable, and maybe even a little controversial topics like:

Handshake Time: Small talk, germs, and awkward moments

Long Announcements: Potlucks, MOPS, and kids singing…again

⏰ Starting Late or Ending Late: The balance between scheduling and “letting the Spirit move”

Overly Spiritual Language: When "God told me" becomes filler

The Pew Police: Yes, they really exist

The Prosperity Gospel: Broken promises and consumer Christianity

Repetitive Worship Songs: How many times can we sing the same line?

Repetitive Sermons: Why is it always about Moses?

Join us as we share some laughs and discuss why these pet peeves might matter more than we think.
