S8, Ep 10: Grounding Your Identity in Christ through Rest
In a culture that measures our "worth by our work and identity by our productivity", the idea of rest might seem counterintuitive. But constantly living that way can leave us feeling empty and exhausted, and pull us further away from God. In this episode we'll chat with our new friend, Hester Christensen as she shares her journey of grounding her identity in Christ by resting in God. You'll be encouraged and refreshed as we dive into scripture to remember who God is and His heart for us. If you've been feeling burned out lately, this episode is an open invitation to sit with us for a bit, experience God's love through His Word, and rest in Him as his beloved daughter. Hosted by Summer Shore and Melissa Campbell. Music by Nathaniel Rodrigues A little about Hester: Hester lives in the Pacific Northwest and loves the great outdoors. She and her husband, David, have 3 young adult sons and a very spoiled goldendoodle. She is an author and speaker, and has served in pastoral ministry for 30 years within the areas of youth, women's and discipleship ministries. She received her bachelor's in Christian Education at Boise Bible College and Bible and her Master's in Bible and Theology from Lincoln Christian University. Hester authored several Bible studies, including "Fake? Living Christlike in a Counterfeit Culture, a 6-week bible study, four new 21-Day devotionals, as well as co-authoring Greater Than a Superhero. For those of you who love Hallmark, Hester co-authored devotions for the Hallmark mini-series, When Calls the Heart, seasons 1-8. Hester is a kindred spirit who seeks to inspire others to experience the living God and equip women to fully embrace their identity in Christ.
