Sent & Solid

Burnout rarely begins with bad intentions. Often, it begins with a deep desire to serve faithfully.
In this episode of Sent & Solid, Mike talks with missionary, author, psychologist, and TCK Connie Befus about rest, burnout, and the rhythms of grace. Together they explore why global workers are especially vulnerable to exhaustion, the danger of the “adrenaline trap,” the biblical gift of Sabbath, setting healthy boundaries, and learning to trust God when the work is never finished.
Discover why we’re called to be living sacrifices—not burnt sacrifices—and how healthy rhythms of rest can help global workers stay and thrive for the long haul.
