Your life is speaking. The real question is—are you listening? Wisdom doesn’t shout; it whispers. It speaks softly through your longings, your limits, and even your fatigue. Today, we learn to listen: to ask better questions, to interview ourselves, and to hear what our lives have been trying to say all along. That’s where we begin to move beneath the exhaustion and burnout.

What if the fatigue, exhaustion, depletion and burn-out has come to tell you something about your life? What would it look like to find a place of solitude and silence and begin interviewing these feelings and experiences you are having? What could they be saying? If your body is weary, it’s time to stop and listen to that communication.

What do you do when you are tired, exhausted, depleted, and burned out? Our culture tells us to push through, power through, grind it out, and keep going at all costs. But how is that working for us? What if instead we stopped? What if we took a deep breath, and didn’t do anything? What if instead we listen to the fatigue instead of pushing through it?

Neglecting yourself for the sake of another can appear as a noble sacrifice. But after a while, it can lead to your own personal burnout. What you begin to realize is that neglecting yourself actually limits your capacity to love the other. Today we talk about making your own well-being a priority. We are called to love our neighbor AS OURSELF.

Tired, Exhausted, Depleted, Burned out? This one goes out to the weary and ones carrying heaven burdens. Christ invites you to come to him. Why? He can give you rest.

This week the senate passed H.R.1 also called the one big beautiful bill. Afterward, speaker Johnson said, “I give glory to God.” Did God push the vote through? Does God support H.R.1? Let’s talk about it.

Are you tired, exhausted, depleted, on the brink of burn out? If that’s you, today we talk about loving your neighbor as yourself. But before we get to, “as yourself” we need to talk about loving our neighbor. Because what is happening with immigrants in this country can make us exhausted.

There is a common expression swirling in the air when asked, “How are you?” Generally the response is, “I’m tired, weary, fatigued, exhausted, stressed, overwhelmed, drained, spent, depleted or burned out. Today, we begin a new series of teaching on why we all feel exhausted and what this exhaustion might be telling us. 

This is our final teaching in the book of Revelation. In this final section, John extends an invitation into the new city to all those who are thirsty. Who does John see inside this city? Who is left out? The gates remain open. This is the ultimate ending with a picture of universal restoration.

In the final chapter of Revelation, John takes us back to Genesis 3 with an image of the tree of life. People in the new city are recovering their original goodness. The leaves on this tree are for the healing of the nations. In this new city, John sees no more pain and hurt but healing of all the harms that have been done and received.
