Choosing Rest: Cultivating a Sunday Heart in a Monday World

One of God's greatest gifts to us----rest----is also one of the most elusive. Anyone who has faced demanding schedules, torn relationships, or bitter disappointments knows that the call to rest in the midst of it all seems impossible.

We struggle through our days, hoping to just survive, believing rest cannot be ours until we have more time or easier circumstances. But the Bible promises that rest is available now. No matter how great our restlessness feels, Jesus can lead us into His presence today. Through heart connection with Him we can find a rest that cannot be taken from us.

Whether the chaos in your life is subtle or extreme, Choosing Rest will give you the tools to help cultivate your soul so that you can live in the rest God wants for you----for today, for tomorrow, for life. Learn more.
