How Play Draws Us Closer to Jesus
About this episode
This episode explores how play and intentional practices can draw us closer to Jesus and rediscover joy in our lives.
In this solo episode of Theology on Purpose , I share how an unexpected interruption became an invitation to slow down and rediscover joy. In a season marked by full schedules and creeping productivity, I began to notice how difficult it had become to truly rest—and even harder to remember how to play. This episode explores the connection between spiritual formation and delight, and how practices like creativity, leisure, and embodied rest can draw us closer to Jesus. Through small, intentional changes, I found a renewed sense of freedom, spaciousness, and joy in my everyday life. You can too! Just listen in. Take the Connect with God quiz here
