About this episode

Janet and Noelle discuss the distinction between physical sleeplessness and spiritual rest, emphasizing the biblical perspective on rest.

Can you experience true spiritual rest even when a good night’s sleep feels out of reach? Janet and Noelle explore the difference between physical sleeplessness and spiritual rest, drawing on a biblical theology of rest developed by Dr. Rob Green of Faith Bible Seminary. They examine what Scripture says about rhythms of work and rest and point listeners toward the soul rest found only in Christ, even in the middle of chronic exhaustion.
