Faith, Work & Rest Initiative Podcast

In this episode we get to hear from both Missy Wallace and Blake Schwarz about two spiritual practices that help nourish their intimacy with God. Missy shares about her first (and ongoing) practice of taking “silent days” with God and how it carves out space to hear from and deeply commune with Him. Blake tells us about his weekly practice of fasting and how his understanding of its formative power has evolved through the years.
