Ep. 87 REST | Depletion is Inevitable, Therefore Restoration is Essential with Philip & Lynn Jackson Pursuing Life

    • Christianity

Global Partners, Philip and Lynn Jackson, have been living and doing ministry in Macedonia for nearly 30 years. About fifteen years ago, they were on home assignment, when the college-aged son of another Global Partner couple asked Philip to help him with a class assignment on solitude. This discussion on solitude was door that would open both Philip and Lynn to the regular rhythm of Sabbath, which they have been practicing ever since! This past summer, they also had the chance to take a Sabbatical, where they intentionally took extended time to rest, worship, and refresh themselves for the next season of ministry. Today they are sharing how this practice of Sabbath combats burnout, how they work it into their personal weekly rhythms, and what they learned from their summer Sabbatical.
