We'll explore: Why God designed us to need rest The hidden cost of constant busyness How striving can cause us to miss God's grace What Elijah's burnout teaches us about rest Why slowing down helps us gain wisdom and become more fruitful How biblical productivity differs from hustle culture If you've listened to the previous episodes in this summer series on overwhelm, overcommitment, and slowing down, this episode helps tie everything together. The goal isn't to accomplish everything. The goal is faithfulness. And faithfulness often grows best at a pace slow enough to notice God's hand in your life.
