What if experiencing soul-soothing rest is more accessible than you think?

It doesn't require hours of silent mediation, a new book, or some recently rediscovered spiritual discipline. In fact, our guest would suggest it really doesn't require you to add anything. It might just require a simple reframe of the things you're already doing.

This week, we're joined by preacher, author, and InterVarsity's National Director of Alumni Relations, Jason Gaboury. And Jason is going to help us wrap up our series on rest with some surprisingly familiar (and simple) practices for experiencing rest in our day-to-day lives. Listen in and rest up!

I just got a new job. Isn't it too early to think about vacation?

No way! Well-planned vacations can play a vital role in effective rhythms of rest. This week, we're joined by R. York Moore, CEO of the Coalition for Christian Outreach and TikTok evangelist with nearly 700k followers. And York's going to help us reimagine the way we think about vacation and the role it plays in healthy post-graduation rhythms.

Do more than just get away on your next vacation. Get some rest!

Are there opportunities for rest beyond a weekly sabbath?

Yes! Day-to-day recreation is a very realistic option for experiencing rest between sabbaths. What are the activities that leave you feeling restored and that fit (or could fit with a little help) into your daily schedule? Those activities just might be the answer to a healthy source of rest throughout your week.

Our episode this week explores the idea of rest through recreation with Stacy Jackson, the Director of Healthy Living at Jon's local YMCA.
