SoulFit: Biblical Rest for Busy Lives
from The Mind Body Project · host Aaron Degler
We challenge the idea that busyness proves our value and remind ourselves that rest is biblical, not laziness. We look at moments when Jesus steps away, sleeps, and sits down, then ask what it would change if we wore a “rest badge” instead. • busyness used as a badge of honor and why it fuels guilt • Jesus retreating alone to pray and why solitude is loving, not selfish • resting with others and staying connected when life gets crowded • Jesus sleeping through the storm and what faith looks like under pressure • the “sleep through a storm” farmhand story and how preparation supports peace • Jesus resting at the well and how pauses can create the moments we need • rest as recovery that builds us physically, mentally, and spiritually Have a great Friday, a fantastic Friday, and I’ll see you everybody next week https://aarondegler.com/
