Sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is stop producing. In this conversation, Jesse French and Cody Buriff talk about what it means to let parts of our lives “lay fallow”—to rest, to pause, and to trust that unseen work is still happening beneath the surface. They explore why rest isn’t laziness, but wisdom, and how our constant drive to achieve can actually rob us of long-term health. Together they wrestle with questions about control, trust, and the fear of slowing down. It’s an honest look at what happens when men choose to stop forcing growth and let God do His quiet work.
