015 - Reservoirs, Canals, and ...Pickleball?

In this episode of the Unsettled Podcast, Todd and Thomas continue their conversation about Jesus' invitation to rest and explore what that looks like in everyday life. Why do we often feel guilty for slowing down? Why do we wait until we're completely exhausted before giving ourselves permission to rest? And is it possible to find rest even in the middle of a busy workday or a chaotic season? Using the image of a reservoir versus a canal, they discuss the importance of being filled up so that we can overflow into the lives of others rather than constantly running on empty. From walks outside and exercise to naps, family time, pickleball, and simply paying attention to God's presence, this conversation offers a practical and encouraging reminder that rest isn't laziness—it's necessary. They also look at Jesus sleeping in the middle of a storm and consider what it might mean to experience peace even when life around us feels chaotic. Maybe the best place to start is simply asking God: What do I need? And then, trusting the answer enough to do it. Rest is not something reserved for the weekend. It's an invitation available to us every day. CALLED TO MORE.  MADE TO RISK.
