113 - Tired of Being Tired? Receive God's Rest with Jess Connolly

Author and Pastor at Bright City Church in Charleston, SC, Jess Connolly joins the podcast to share some helpful advice, spiritual practices, and truths on adopting a lifestyle marked with rest. In her newest book, Tired of Being Tired: Receive God's Realistic Rest for Your Soul-Deep Exhaustion, she walks the reader through practices on how to find the source of one's fatigue. Jess includes scriptures to meditate on for saying "no," shares strategies for protecting personal peace, and practices for bringing realistic rest into your daily and weekly rhythms. With co-host Amy Worley and Joey Svendsen, the three also talk through seasons in which rest seems impossible, how busyness is viewed as a badge of honor, how comparison kills, and how rest comes easier for some.At the top of the episode, Amy, Joey, Lynne, and Roy talk some about rest, telling lies, the Olympics and a moment over the summer when Joey lost his cool with a stranger.
