After IV

How important is rest after graduation?

After graduation, getting a strong start at work is oftentimes our biggest priority. Work is good. But what about getting a strong start to rest? For the next five weeks, we're going to explore ways to start incorporating healthy rhythms of rest in this post-graduation season of life.

To start things off, we're chatting with Alan Fadling, spiritual director, speaker, and author of multiple IVP titles including An Unhurried Life: Following Jesus' Rhythms of Work and Rest, and A Non-Anxious Life: Experiencing the Peace of God's Presence. Alan is going to help us understand a biblical basis for rest and why now is the right time to start to developing these essential rhythms.
