“This demand to perform, which I think in general is a good thing, has to be approached through rest, you have to be able to rest.” – Dallas Willard
Most of us are very aware of the need for rest, but we often don’t know how to do so given the demands and pressures of our work. This week we feature a three-part series by Dallas Willard, “Is it Well with Your Soul? Rhythms of Rest and Work,” wherein Willard gives practical advice for developing healthy rhythms of rest and work.
The occasion for the talks was a 2012 Faculty Bridges sponsored “Winds of Change” retreat that invited Christian faculty to hear from Dallas Willard. While Willard speaks to faculty on the importance of soul rest from his experience as a professor, his practical wisdom is applicable to any work context.
