The world was weary and waiting...and God didn’t keep his distance. He sent his son, Jesus, a baby born to a virgin in Bethlehem. We celebrate on Christmas Day with lights and gifts, but underneath it all, he offers the gift we all need most: new beginnings, no matter where life has brought you.

We live in a work more, achieve more, never stop era. But do you feel rested? When God created the earth, he took a day to rest and told us to do the same. Sabbath: a chance to put down the pressure of productivity to find rest that lasts.

It's more than self-care. It's soul care. It's the small daily habits that make space for God, especially when you're worn out. With a little extra care and intentionality, you can work to restore what's exhausted.

What's been stressing you out lately? Work, a full calendar, responsibilities, relationships, maybe all of it. When stress starts running your life, that's when it helps to notice what's draining you—so you can find a healthier way to handle it.

Second-guessing your decisions lately? Wish God could speak to you with a megaphone? We've all been there. God has a lot to say through the Bible—he shows us who he is and how to live. And listening to his Word isn't about being perfect. It's about paying attention.
