You were made for closeness and connection. Connection with God, with people and in your marriage. Yet, exhaustion, striving, noise and distractions are real life hurdles to closeness and intimacy. What would it look like to have invitational rest in your life?

 

In this episode, Francie shares from her own journey and experience with the weariness of exhaustion and gently encourages you to lay down the hurdles of rest and simply "come to Him." Let's set aside the barrier of exhaustion and make room for quietness and margin (even if it's a little uncomfortable).

 

You'll hear practical help and ideas, as well as a deeper understanding of the fruitfulness of a life with space and margin. Real authentic connection and intimacy comes from a place of rest.

Mrs. Armytage, or Female Domination by Catherine Grace Frances Gore Loyal Books Mrs Armytage is a widowed landowner, spirited, independent and very much used to having her own way and exercising total dominance over her family. She is acutely aware of social distinctions, proud of her power and prestige, and stands on her dignity to the point of becoming cold, judgemental and aloof. Her character flaws bring her into conflict with her children when her son Arthur announces his choice of a wife who is very much below their rank, and much will happen before Mrs Armytage learns to repent her behaviour.Mrs Catherine Gore was foremost among the writers of 'Silver Fork' or 'fashionable' novels, hugely popular in the early 1800s, which chronicle the romances and scandals of the upper classes during the Regency period.
