Episode 23: Come Away and Rest: Following Jesus into Solitude

Hey friends—this week on Confident Clergy Women, I’m reflecting on one of my favorite invitations from Jesus: “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest” (Mark 6:31).We’re continuing our series on rest, and today I’m sharing how Jesus modeled rest—not as a reward after hard work, but as a regular rhythm of ministry. I’ll walk you through Scripture, real-life moments, and a few simple, practical ways you can carve out space for solitude, even in the busiest seasons.If your soul is weary, this episode is a gentle invitation to come away, breathe deeply, and remember that your worth isn’t in what you do—but in who (and whose) you are. Stick around until the end for a short breath prayer you can carry into your day.Let’s rest together—body, mind, and spirit.Stay for the guided breath prayer at the end—your soul will thank you!Let's Connect! 🌐 Learn more: ⁠⁠⁠revamberlaffey.my.canva.site⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📧 Contact: ⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠📸 Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@revamberl⁠⁠⁠📘 Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠Rev Amber Laffey
