Summary

Serving God can often rob us of the joy of simply being with Him. In this episode, Christy Nockels, a wife and mother, singer-songwriter, and worship leader for Passion Conferences and IF: Gathering, shares how she made decisions to begin living more from a heart of rest.



Christy shares about:



* A season when God called her to take a break from her ministry, and confront the false sense of purpose and worth she was finding in her career.* How she learned to find rest in God's presence in every act of service she does as a parent.* How she found her highest calling not in a duty to uphold, but in a beautiful identity to live out.



Show Notes:



ORDER CHRISTY'S BOOK! The Life You Long For: Living From a Heart of Rest is a beautiful invitation to discover your place in God's heart and let Him set the pace for your life.
