The Shock Absorber

Sleep or lack of, can often be over-spiritualised but if we don't sleep are we actually trusting God?

Brayden joins Joel and Stu to discuss rest for those working in ministry, and in particular sleep. They talk about different ways culture has disrupted sleep but also what changes you can implement to get a good night's rest despite the variables ministry throws up.
