Episode 76: Breaks, Vacation, Rest, and Recreation (Copy)
Host Noah Brink talks about the theology of rest and recreation to both provide greater context for understanding the need for these breaks, but also to encourage reflection in the normal day-to-day of our school weeks, days, and individual class periods or lessons. We were made for rest; spiritual formation requires pause, reflection, and solitude. So, how can we do a better job of weaving a theology of recreation and rest into the fabrics of our schools? that's the question and goal of this Episode.

Episode 44: Prioritizing Rest and Student Flourishing
An unhurried education. Is such a thing possible? How do we bring about more rest in our schools? How do we allow students to have greater ability to pause and grow within the community of the school, rather than hurrying through the day? Is it possible to reduce stress and anxiety?
Host Noah Brink discusses the theology of rest (and of Sabbath) and the cultural and pedagogical necessities of finding ways to slow down, to prioritize human flourishing above volume of content. We'll also introduce some practical ideas for creating the necessary space to nurture spiritual formation and student flourishing.
