I DECIDED TO TAKE UP FRISBEE GOLF
“Somebody told me I needed to rest, so I decided to take up frisbee golf.
I bought the gear and then realized that we needed a better local course so I organized a capital raising project , secured land, designed a course and oversaw contractors to build it, set up a leadership team to oversee and maintain it, advertised and set up webpage, and then I actually played a game of frisbee golf. It turns out that none of that ended up feeling like ‘rest’.. “
Often times we think activity will help us rest when all it does is further fill our life. Jay is a pastor that struggles with experiencing rest. His time with Shepherds Care so rocked his world, that upon return to church after a Sabbatical, his first sermon back was about ‘REST’!
This is some great teaching that will really encourage you as well as gives you an inside look at Shepherds Care through the eyes of a pastor (and wife) that have experienced it. VERY well worth the time to watch. In all my years in church, I have never heard a message that actually shows Biblically how God wants us to REST.
The sermon actually begins at the 43:44 minute mark
