Return to Jesus Podcast (Season 2: Episode 19): Letting Go and Returning to What Matters

Hey friend,This episode is a little different,  it’s just me, and I’m inviting you into something personal.As the holiday season unfolds, I wanted to pause and reflect with you. No guests, no plans, just an honest conversation from my heart. This year has brought some unexpected challenges, the heartbreaking loss of my mother-in-law, some health scares, and the kind of moments that remind you how much we need rest, community, and the peace only Jesus can give.If the holidays feel a little heavy for you too,  if the joy is mixed with grief, or the traditions feel like pressure instead of comfort,  I want you to know you’re not alone. In this episode, I share what I’m learning about accepting help, letting go of the stress I usually carry, and finding the sacred in the simple.Here are two things I hope you’ll carry with you:You don’t have to do it all. Let the simplicity of Christ’s birth remind you that peace often comes when we release expectations and return to what truly matters.It’s okay to need help. Community is a gift, and learning to receive is just as holy as learning to give.I close this episode with a prayer for peace and acceptance,  for you, for me, and for all of us navigating the holidays with tender hearts.Let’s keep returning to Jesus, together.Truly Yours, JenGrab your copy of Return to Jesus HERE - https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/747877/return-to-jesus-by-jen-thompson/Grab your copy of Grace in All Places HERE - https://amzn.to/48n3BliJen Thompson contact information:www.trulyyoursjen.comwww.jenthompsonauthor.com email - [email protected] me on Facebook and Instagram!
