Being Productive - Working from Rest

Return to the 2024 Retreat homepage

The bible puts rest at the centre of the gospel. It presents rest as the reason why the gospel is good news. It shows that, at the heart of God's offer of salvation in and through Jesus Christ, is the offer of rest.

Yet in society today, we see rising levels of stress-related mental health issues; anxiety about the future; neglected children and old people; burnout. Could it be that we have ignored God's gift of rest?

Listen now to our Director, Peter Heslam, as he introduces the biblical foundations that call us to work from rest:

In 2024 we are discovering the role that rest plays in making us more productive in our online seminars series, Faith in Business Monthly.

We now invite you to participate in the Faith in Business 2024 Cambridge Leadership Retreat. Together we will learn what work looks like when it starts by resting in God, and what the implications are as we invest our time, our skills, our relationships and our money in our businesses.

Expect to hear and heed the call to rest in God in ways you have not yet imagined. And return to your workplaces refreshed and ready to nurture businesses and employees unlocking the beauty of God's creation!

Hello and welcome to Faith in Business. We hope you enjoy getting to know us!
