In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, I sit down with my friend Laura, author of The Path to Rest. We talk about practical spirituality for real faith in a 24/7 culture, and what it means to trust in God when your body and your heart are tired. Laura shares her personal story of burnout, health struggles, and the slow work of reversing self-reliance. Together we open the Bible and look at examples of people who faced exhaustion and pressure, including Elijah, Moses, and even Jesus. We talk about Sabbath, delegation, worship, and the kind of daily returning to God that helps you walk with God instead of trying to carry everything alone. If you are longing to grow closer to God, this conversation will meet you with hope and simple next steps for faith in real life.
