13. Finding True Rest in a Busy World -- 4 Tools That Eliminate Stress

Do you feel the pace of life quickening as summer fades and fall ramps up? 🍂 School is back in session, calendars are filling fast, and the holiday season is just around the corner. In this busy season, rest often feels impossible—but it’s actually essential.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into faith-rest: God’s invitation to step out of striving and into His peace. Together we’ll explore three types of rest—physical, soul, and spiritual—and uncover how rest is not laziness, but worship.

You’ll learn:

• Why rest is critical for your body, soul, and spirit

• The brain science behind how rest rewires your mind and lowers stress

• What Hebrews 4 calls the “faith-rest life” and why unbelief blocks us from entering it

• Practical steps to pause, redirect, anchor in Scripture, and build faith over fear

Friend, true rest is not about quitting—it’s about trusting. When you enter God’s faith-rest, you’re breaking the destructive habits of worry and striving, while renewing your mind in His truth. Grab your notebook, and let’s step into freedom together!
