Do you feel a narrative being pushed on you?

Are you wearing all the hats but not being fully seen by your friends, spouse or community?

Do you wonder what being honest with Jesus will actually do for your soul?

In today’s episode, we are celebrating the end of our series on Mary and Martha. We celebrate because despite what most sermons about these women focus on… they were way more than just overworked and busy sisters. While we don’t know the end of your story yet friend, we do know the full, victorious story of two sisters who approached Jesus as a dear friend with boldness, vulnerability and ended with beautifully transformed spirits who could serve and worship authentically.

Do you need a break?

Does your soul need some quiet alone time with the Holy Spirit?

Wonder if you’re “allowed” to pause something in your busy, crazy season?

In this episode, we’re continuing our series on the sisters of Martha and Mary. Today we're at the end of John chapter 11. Through this section of scripture, we reflect and ponder the human-ness of Jesus and His logical response to public scrutiny. Most importantly, we are prompted by the Holy Spirit if we need to lay down our overwhelming season and mountain of expectations to take a soulful pause. Doing more isn’t always the answer, friend. Maybe stopping for a season can reconnect you with your God-given identity, heal some brokenness, and bring you closer to Jesus.
