When God Presses Pause

In this episode, I’m joined by my friend Michelle for a conversation about rest.Together we talk about what it looks like to navigate both intentional rhythms of rest and the unexpected, full-blown seasons where life slows down and God invites us to surrender everything. Michelle shares from her personal experience of walking through a season of rest that required letting go of old identities, releasing plans she once held tightly, and learning to fully seek the Lord in the waiting.We explore how these seasons can feel uncomfortable or even confusing at first, but how they often become sacred spaces where God reshapes our identity, restores our hearts, and realigns us with His purpose.In this episode we discuss:The difference between daily rhythms of rest and deeper seasons of restWhy surrender is often the first step into true restLetting go of identities tied to productivity, roles, or performanceSeeking the Lord intentionally when life feels slow or uncertainHow God uses seasons of rest to prepare us for what comes nextIf you’ve ever found yourself in a season where God seems to be asking you to slow down, wait, or release something you once defined yourself by, this conversation will encourage you to see rest not as a setback, but as an invitation.
