Rest and Sabbath

All NextGen leaders need to find rest and sabbath. At some point, your ministry and personal life may start falling apart, and it may be in part because you’re not taking good care of your own spiritual needs. You may not notice it right away, but someone else may point it out to you (as in Marla’s video below). Take a break and rejuvenate yourself.

Take a sabbath this summer.

You will find peace and rest, wonder, and passion—you will find restoration.
