What You'll Experience:
A Deep Dive into Martha's Story - Beyond the "what she did wrong" narrative to understand what Martha did right, and why her training got in the way of her receiving.
Story-Based Reflection - Guided questions that help you examine how you were trained to behave in the presence of authority, and how that training shows up when you try to rest with God.
Soul Practices - Contemplative exercises designed to slow you down and give your soul time to settle into each piece of truth.
A Soul Card to Carry - Your wound, God's truth, Scripture, and a breathwork prayer to anchor you when overwhelm rises:
Wound: "It's irresponsible to stop"
Truth: "Rest is worship"
Prayer: Breathe in: "This moment is holy" / Breathe out: "Even if I'm not productive"
What You'll Walk Away With:
Understanding of why rest feels foreign - not because you don't want to be with Jesus, but because something is blocking your way of knowing how
Awareness of learned behaviors that keep you distracted by demands that feel like honor and obedience
Permission to welcome Jesus differently - to sit instead of serve, to be instead of do
Tools for recognizing when your distractions feel like demands and how to discern what's truly necessary
A pathway to receive God's invitation to rest without shame or guilt
Who This Is For:
This Soul Letter+ is for the Marthas - the women swimming in overwhelm, the busybodies who can't sit still, those in demanding seasons who've put their souls on the back burner. Whether you're in a "Martha season" or wired like Martha altogether, this resource meets you with grace and understanding.
The Invitation:
You long to meet with Jesus. You long to love and serve Him. It's what you were created for. So it's not that you don't want to rest with Him; it's that something may be blocking your way of knowing how to do it.
This isn't about shaming yourself for struggling to rest in His presence. This is about understanding your story, extending grace to yourself, and learning that the distractions pulling you away—though they feel necessary and even honorable—don't have to define your relationship with God.

Remember: This week is about slowing down and giving your soul time to settle into each piece. There is no rush to the finish line. Only a gracious walk to the soul line.
