Rhythms of Rest Pt. 2 – Rest is Resistance (6/8/25)

June 8, 2025

In a world driven by busyness and defined by productivity, rest often feels like a luxury we cannot afford. Yet Scripture teaches us that rest is not a reward for exhaustion but a declaration of trust in God's provision. In this message, Rest Is Resistance, we explore the story of Israel’s manna in the wilderness (Exodus 16:22–30) and uncover how Sabbath is a bold act of faith — a protest against the scarcity mindset and a return to God's rhythms of grace. Through the lens of Chronos and Kairos time, we are invited to step out of the world's relentless pace and into the fullness of God’s appointed moments. Practical practices for living into this rhythm help us see that rest is not weakness; it is a quiet but powerful declaration that God's grace, time, and provision are enough.
