What drives the feeling of unrest within us?  We don't feel settled and we are continually seeking things in this world to fill a void that only Jesus can fill.

In today's episode we are jumping into the topic of how to find mental and emotional rest in our daily lives.  We will be discussing the things that often cause unrest within us and where we can find true rest that lasts.  

Thank you for joining us today and we hope that you leave feeling supported, a  little more rested, and with some ideas that you can implement into your week!

Today we will be discussing body image.  Anyone else have moments of struggling with how you look, wanting to be different, and just not satisfied overall with where you are physically?  We have all been there!  Today we are going to discuss how God sees us and who He says we are in Him.  The world tells us one thing, but God tells us a different story.

Join us today as we jump into these topics:
-Body image as we age and after big life transitions
-Where we find our true identity
-How God defines beauty
