Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we’re talking about rest—what it is, why it feels so hard, and how the gospel transforms the way we think about it. For many of us, rest sounds less like a gift and more like a dirty word. We confuse it with laziness, wasted time, or weakness. And in a culture that prizes busyness and constant motion, slowing down feels nearly impossible.But here’s the interesting part: even the thought of resting can make us anxious. We wonder if we’re doing enough, accomplishing enough, or being “productive” enough. The result? We keep running, chasing deadlines, distractions, and endless to-do lists—yet we’re still tired, restless, and unsatisfied.Join us as we explore what Scripture says about true rest. We’ll confront the lies we’ve believed about busyness, uncover why our own attempts at peace always fall short, and discover how Jesus alone offers real, soul-refreshing rest. By the end, you’ll see that rest isn’t weakness—it’s the ordinary, joyous, and life-giving way we’re invited to live in Christ.Please email us your name and address to [email protected] for a chance to win!Book Recommendation: Ordinary: Sustainable Faith in a Radical, Restless World by Michael Horton https://a.co/d/ev9NLS0Follow Three Thirty Ministry on Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/three.thirty.mens.ministry/⁠Subscribe to He Must Increase on Youtube:⁠⁠www.youtube.com/@HeMustIncreasePodcastCheck Out Our Website: threethirtyministry.com
