Description

Why is true rest so difficult to receive, even when we need it most?

In this episode of The Unsettled Podcast, Todd and Thomas take a candid, unscripted look at Jesus’s invitation in Matthew 11:28–30 to "come to me, all you who are weary and burdened." Moving past the idea that rest simply means taking a nap or checking off the day's to-do list, they explore how to find internal peace and release the exhausting need for performance and control.

From navigating real-life stresses like home repairs and packed schedules to learning how to operate from your "true self," this conversation offers practical insights on how to stay connected with God right in the middle of life's busiest seasons.

Key Highlights:

• Redefining Rest: Why spiritual rest isn't physical sleep or freedom from responsibilities, but freedom from having to prove yourself.
• The Trap of Control: How micromanaging outcomes leads to burnout—even when it yields short-term results.
• Consecration in Action: Practical steps for inviting God into everyday stressors before tackling them on your own.
• Gifts vs. True Self: Differentiating between using your abilities to seek approval versus operating out of genuine communion with God.
