Finding Rest in Christ

Issue #1 - January 2025

Welcome to the first issue of Rooted & Renewed! In this issue, we explore the biblical concept of rest and how we can find true renewal in Christ.

Featured Article: The Gift of Rest

Matthew 11:28 invites us: “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

True rest isn’t just about physical relaxation—it’s about finding peace in Christ’s presence, trusting in His sovereignty, and letting go of burdens we were never meant to carry.
