Synopsis

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matt. 11:28).Women are overcommitted, overconnected, overburdened, and overwhelmed. Their lives are full, but oddly, their souls are empty. They are aching for a bold challenge—one that will bring rest to their longing souls. Rest Assured is for the daring women who truly want to disrupt their current patterns and see lasting change.Divided into two parts, Rest Assured offers not just an intervention: The Badge of BusynessThe Exhausting Pursuit of HappinessTethered SoulsWorried SickBut also a recovery plan: Prioritize the One Thing Needed: Time for GodCreate Room to Breathe: Time for SolitudeGive Yourself a Break: Time for LeisurePay It Forward: Time for OthersIf the soul is weary, it’s time for an intervention. Rest Assured is not a quick fix but rather a bold challenge that aids women in identifying the negative patterns that prevent them from experiencing rest in their souls. Most importantly, it will give them the tools needed to break the cycle.A “Rest Stop” challenge is included at the end of each chapter for use in Bible studies and book clubs. Bonus material includes a 30-Day Restoration Plan and 100 Ways to Give It a Rest.
