We created this app because we needed it. We think you might need it too!
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
Life for too many is a struggle. So often we adopt a lifestyle that is frantic and busy and we then long for the next day off, for the next vacation or to simply get beyond the next deadline. We all too easily find ourselves living simply FOR rest.
Yet for those who know God, life can and should be lived FROM rest!
This app is designed to help you find and maintain a place of peace. It is from this place that we actually become so much more productive. When we learn to “let go and let God” life actually becomes so much more joyful and fruitful.
Our prayer is that this app will help you find the rhythm of rest that God always intended you to have. As you rest, as you simply abide in Him, may you know the beauty of His peace
Our first live course: Rhythms of Rest
Sabbath, Solitude and Simplicity: A course in 3 parts
We are delighted to give you this free, 3-part series, led by Joshua Luke Smith, which is ideal for small group discussion.
These important spiritual disciplines are so often overlooked, yet they are so beneficial to our mental and spiritual well being.
For each session there is a short (approx. 10min video) with a downloadable outline (PDF) giving suggestions for discussion.
Let us learn to love the rhythms of rest that God has given us.
In a world obsessed with doing, we are discovering the ancient art of being.
We are excited to offer this course totally free, in the hope that it will help you on your journey to a life lived peacefully. You're welcome to leave a donation if you choose.
