Practicing The Way | God's Rhythm
One of the many remarkable things about Jesus’ life is his restraint and rhythm. Knowing he had only three years in ministry might have made him frantic and sleepless, but it wasn’t the case. Thankfully, he gave us practices so that our own lives can also be marked by restraint and rhythm.
