Why You’re Still Exhausted: The Biblical Secret to Entering God’s Rest // David Swart

Sunday, January 25, 2026

Are you living a life that feels exhausted, anxious, or distracted?

In today’s message, we dive into Genesis Chapter 2 to explore the "Shabbat" (Rest) of God. Often, we think of rest as mere inactivity or "Netflix and chill," but the biblical definition is much deeper. It is about God dwelling with His people in joyful rule.

From the Garden of Eden to the Tabernacle, and finally to the finished work of Jesus on the cross, we see a God who desires to make us His dwelling place. If you’ve been struggling with "performance-based value," this sermon is an invitation to unlearn the hustle and enter a rest that is available to you right now.

In this sermon, you will discover:

The difference between idleness and biblical rest.
How the New Testament (Hebrews 4) interprets the Old Testament Sabbath.
Practical ways to become aware of God's presence in your daily work.
Why "striving to enter rest" isn't an oxymoron.
