Finding Rest in a Busy World: Reconnecting with Jesus
In this episode of 'Heaven Yeah,' Nick Holliday discusses the cultural obsession with busyness and how it affects our spiritual lives. He reflects on the biblical story of Mary and Martha from Luke 10:40-42 to illustrate the importance of choosing Jesus' presence over endless tasks. Nick emphasizes the need for intentional rest, spiritual stillness, and creating margin in our schedules to foster a deeper connection with God. He urges listeners to not let busyness be a barrier to their intimacy with Jesus and to practice holy interruption, taking time to simply be with God.
