In this episode, Rebekah delves into the theology of rest, focusing on Matthew 11:28-30, where Jesus invites those who are weary and burdened to come to Him and find rest for their souls. First, let's learn what each of these words mean... Labor... and Heavy Laden, because they are distinctly different and their definitions hit deep! Then, let's grasp what Jesus means when He says His "yolk is easy" and His "burden is light."
