Finding Rest For Your Soul

Carrying a burdened conscience—whether from abortion, deep loss, or the everyday weight of living in a broken world—may be the heaviest load a soul can bear, yet Jesus offers a promise unlike any other: "I will give you rest." In this episode, Mark Nicholson and John Ensor meditate on Matthew 11:28–30, exploring how these comfortable words contrast with the false rest the world offers and how they've watched guilt turn to peace on the faces of women across the mission field. Wherever your soul feels heavy, discover the quiet, unburdened conscience that God is ready to give you, on this episode of PassionLife.
