VanderNews: June 22nd


Our Latest News & Resources

 

This month, we have chosen to lean into the topic of rest. We want to help provide you with the tools you need to best fulfill your mission and calling, and rest is a critical tool in your arsenal that should not be neglected. 

But why exactly are we choosing to discuss rest now? Yes, the world is always exhausting, and it seems we’re always tired. However, there are a few distinct reasons why rest is so critical for you to pursue in this specific season. We are in a unique period of transition out of a global crisis, and that brings with it its own set of challenges. Rather than trying to bulldoze forward into a new season, consider these reasons why you need to embrace rest.
