Making Disciples Who Make Disciples
Rested. Empowered. Sent.
Restorative Wellness is a Kingdom-first paradigm that combats chronic overload and exhaustion among God’s people. Attending to our unrest in God-honoring, life-giving ways, Restorative Wellness prepares God’s people to wake up and rise up to be the disciple makers we are called to be.
In our 24/7 world, Restorative Wellness gives people permission to run hard and strategically stop and rest guilt-free. A Community Commitment to God’s plan for work and rest positions disciple makers to a commitment to GO that advances the gospel and changes lives.
To do this, we have to address the standard operating norms of most believers: overload, exhaustion, and guilt. These three, vice-grip realities sabotage our Growth, our GO, and the work God wants to do in us and through us.
John 4:6 tells us, “… Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.”
Jesus recognized his limits, was aware of his fatigue, and he did something about it; he took a break and sat down – unafraid and unashamed. May we, too, follow Jesus’ lead – to run hard and rest well.
Why are disciple making efforts anemic in American today?
-
We Are Tired
We are stretched thin and worn out. We are entwined in unrealistic expectations and running perpetually at an unsustainable pace. Why? Because more is caught than taught. We are following the lead of others. We are doing what we have been taught and what we see in others: run hard and run harder. End of story. Jesus has another way.
-
We Are Distracted
We are distracted by the pain of unhealed wounds, a current crisis, or misaligned priorities that keep us from doing what Jesus did and loving what Jesus loves.
-
We Are Un(der)Discipled
Restorative Wellness speaks into our fatigue, heal weary hearts, and opens the door for Jesus to deal with our distraction. RHRW then points individuals and groups to disciple making ministries, movements, and resources that are equipping God’s people to GO make a difference in the lives of neighbors and coworkers who don’t yet know Jesus.
