Is rest something you practice — or something you avoid?
In this special bonus episode of the Built to Serve series, we explore what Scripture really says about rest, and why it’s not just helpful — it’s holy. From Genesis to the Gospels, the Bible shows us that rest is part of God’s original design, not a reward for burnout.
Jesus Himself modeled rhythms of rest, retreat, and renewal. And if the Son of God needed it — so do we.
This episode is a much-needed reset for every man who’s tired of running on empty, chasing performance, or feeling guilty for slowing down. Learn how to build a life that works hard and rests well — not in laziness, but in obedience.
