Is it time for a Reset? /// In Rest Podcast
05/24/2025

Send us a text

We all need to take time to reset, especially when we are approaching a new season in our life. Maybe you're coming up on a new month, new week, or new year (fiscal or otherwise). Any time we are about to step into something new, it's important that we reset, check in with God and others who are allies in our journey, and with ourselves. 

What are your goals? What are your desires, concerns? What values do you need to return to? Is there someone you need to connect with?

 Welcome! Are you in a moment of change right now? Maybe you're facing some depressing stuff. Either way, you can trust God has hope for you. 

This testimony is all about hope and how to have joy in hope even while the worst is happening. HEADS UP-- about halfway through recording this, I interrupted recording it to go and help my youngest son who was in a life or death situation (#dadlife). I had a lot of joy knowing he was okay and that God was with us to help with th...

Surrender to Christ: Live your Best in Christ /// In Rest
04/07/2023

Send us a text

What comes to your mind when you think of surrender? Folding in poker? Forfeiting a game of chess? France in WWII? Whatever you think of, surrender almost always involves the irrevocable devotion of something. To surrender is to give up, to totally render something to another.

But how does that connect with the topic of surrendering to Christ? How does that carry over? Today on the podcast we're focusing on surrender as TRUSTING and OBEYING, resulting in our lives gradually belonging totally to God.

The Power of Christ: Live your Best in Christ // In Rest
03/31/2023

Send us a text

When you hear "power of Christ," it may draw your mind to the 1973 horror film "The Exorcist." "The power of Christ compels you" since became an iconic reference. Although the power of Christ is compelling, and (unlike its portrayal in the aforementioned film) effective, there is a lot more to know about the power of Christ than what is displayed in culture.

Today, we dive into Scripture to look at the word power, and look at some examples of how Jesus used His power. We also look into how to tap...
