In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, I'm joined by my friend Laura Mendenhall—writer, speaker, and founder of the Love Fast Live Slow movement. Laura shares her powerful journey of learning to embrace rest and Sabbath in a 24/7 culture. Through her own experiences with burnout, health struggles, and surrendering self-reliance, Laura offers inspiring stories and practical steps to help us let go of the hustle mentality and find true rest in the Lord.
We also dive into biblical examples of rest, including lessons from Elijah, Moses, and Jesus, and talk about how busyness isn't the enemy—it's a heart issue.
This conversation is packed with wisdom, encouragement, and tools to help you shift your perspective and lean into God's design for rest.
