Episode 24: Forget the Hustle — Let Sabbath Remind You Who You Are

Hey friends—welcome back to Confident Clergy Women! In this episode, we’re continuing our Embracing Rest series by diving into one of the most sacred (and let’s be real—challenging) spiritual practices: Sabbath.I’m sharing what I’ve learned—and what I’m still learning—about Sabbath rest. Not the rigid, rule-based version some of us grew up with, but the beautiful, life-giving pause God invites us into. I’ll talk about what it was like to step away from ministry for the month of July, and how I’ve been trying (and often struggling) to let rest shape my soul—not just my schedule.We’ll look at Scripture, wisdom from Wayne Mueller’s book Sabbath, and real-life experiences from my own ministry and spiritual direction. I hope it encourages you to step off the treadmill of productivity and embrace the truth: you are beloved, whether you’re working or resting.If your heart is craving a holy pause, this one’s for you. Come on in, take a deep breath, and let’s remember that Sabbath is not just a day—it’s a gift.Let's Connect! 🌐 Learn more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠revamberlaffey.my.canva.site⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📧 Contact: ⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠📸 Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@revamberl⁠⁠⁠⁠📘 Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Rev Amber Laffey
