Rest for the Weary 06: Serving When You Need to Be Served with Jessica Mathisen

Today we’re chatting with Jessica Mathisen about serving in the seasons in which you feel like you need to be served. We pray this conversation encourages you not to become weary in doing good, knowing that at the proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. If you don’t know Jessica, she lives outside of Atlanta with her husband and three kids. As a writer, Bible teacher, podcaster, and coach, her passion is to communicate God's love to others through words and relationships. She has written several books, her latest of which is An Overwhelming Hope: How the Spirit Brings Peace to Our Storms. We hope Jessica’s story of God’s faithfulness to her through seasons of transition, change, and weakness reminds you of his faithfulness to you too.
