On the podcast, we continue the Closing Rhythms - that help us to close out a season (or year) and begin another one with intentionality. Today, we look at the second one: Rest.

Rest of the body and soul is an act of trust and worship; it puts us at our best and positions us to receive from the Lord. We need rest and renewal if we're going to see things (both the past and the future) in the right perspective.

On the podcast, we talk about the Closing Rhythms - that help us to close out a season (or year) and begin another one with intentionality. Today, we begin with the first one: Retreat.

The 'hustle culture' says that we should work and grind to the end, but that is not what the Gospel Culture says.

If we want to get into the flow of rest, reflection and receiving from God, we would have to take this seriously enough to pause and take the time to pull back from as many distractions and obligations as possible.

Fear thrives in the dark. It thrives when things are unclear and vague. It thrives where there is no light or clarity or understanding.

Hello everyone!

On this episode of The Lifeaholic Podcast, we share a message for anyone who feels burdened, overwhelmed, confused, hurt or just plain tired. And this is the message: You have a Father who is waiting for you.

We don’t just have a Father who is going to provide us with healing, hope, strength and direction. We have a Father who is Himself our healing, hope, strength and direction. He doesn’t just have the answer. He is the Answer.

We talk about the things that could keep us away from Him and round off with a couple of practical ways to help us lean into Him.

The Lifeaholic Podcast is back for Season 4!
I'm happy to be back and I'd like to welcome you back, too. It's great to be having these conversations with you.
It is my prayer that every episode of the podcast will strengthen your spirit, soul and body and give you practical ways to live more abundantly in Jesus' Name. Amen.
