What if your exhaustion is revealing something deeper about you? The Gospel Coalition's Brett McCracken joins Ellen Krause to offer a fresh perspective on why God created us to rest—and what our need for sleep can teach us about surrender, trust, and dependence on Him.

You’ll discover:

  • Why sleep is a gift from God, not something to feel guilty about
  • How your need for rest can reveal your limits and desire for control
  • What science and Scripture teach us about dreams
  • How sleep can become an act of trust and worship
  • What to do when exhaustion or sleeplessness is part of your current season
  • How our imperfect rest points us toward the perfect rest we have in Christ

If you’ve been running on empty or wondering, "why am I always tired?" this conversation will encourage you to see rest in a whole new way.
