Ever feel like you're not allowed to rest?
There's always something that needs to get done. And even when you stop, you feel guilty.
But Jesus told His disciples to rest (Mark 6:31).
Rest isn't something you have to earn by exhausting yourself.

Administrative plans only matter when they transform our local communities. Just as Barnabas invested in Paul, we are called to offer genuine friendship, meaningful purpose, and encouragement to the people right next to us.

What if we measured church growth by more than the number of people attending?
During #Sabbath Divine Worship, Audrey challenged leaders to focus on helping members grow spiritually, discover their gifts, and take part in God's mission.
Attendance is a beginning, not the goal.

Sometimes the week piles so much on us that we forget who we are underneath it all.
Thailand’s Lai Rot Nam art reveals beautiful gold patterns through a careful process of washing away what covers them.
#Sabbath gives us that kind of pause.
A day to set down the stress, the expectations, and the noise, and remember: you are deeply known by God. Nothing about you is hidden from Him.
“You were not hidden from me…” Psalm 139:15
Rest in that today.
Happy Sabbath. 💛

A barren yard in Thailand turned into a thriving garden in just 30 mins, but the real miracle took 10 years!
See how one elderly couple’s help with vegetables led to a new church, a school, and 9 baptisms.
