What if the deepest kind of rest doesn’t come from doing less—but from trusting more? In the final episode of the Rest + Rise series of the Broken & Beautiful Podcast, we explore what it means to rest not just with your body, but with your whole heart. Hebrews 4:9-11 reminds us that “there remains… a Sabbath-rest for the people of God”—a rest rooted in confidence that God is working, even when we are not.

Stephanie Feger and Shannon Carroll of Broken & Beautiful Retreats guide you through the tension of waiting, uncertainty and surrender—offering a vision of rest as an act of faith, not just a pause from activity. When we step back and trust God’s promises, we’re not giving up control—we’re giving it to the only One who’s truly in control.

This episode is for anyone who feels the pull to strive, fix or figure it all out. Come be reminded that real peace comes not from having all the answers, but from knowing the One who holds them.
