Rest Is a Weapon: Leading from Overflow, Not Overwhelm

Feeling tired, stretched, or stuck in “why is nothing happening?” mode? Then this episode is for you.

This week on Off Topic but On Point, we unpack the power of rest, not as something you do after the hustle, but as a strategic, spiritual weapon. I (Odette) share what God has been speaking to me lately, especially around Isaiah 45 and the invitation to trust even when it feels like nothing is shifting.

Dr. Janine drops wisdom on the five types of rest and how to plan rest like a business expense. Ps Christo brings it home with practical insight on identity, spiritual leadership, and why rest is an act of trust, not weakness.

We go deep into:

• Why rest isn’t optional—it’s obedience
• Leading yourself before you lead others
• How to identify the kind of rest your soul needs
• The link between identity, rest, and spiritual authority
• How to walk from victory, not strive for it

Rest is resistance. | Rest is obedience. | Rest is warfare.

• Needs permission to stop striving
• Feels stuck, unseen or spiritually burnt out
• Is leading others but hasn’t paused to lead themselves
