What Nature and God’s Word Teach Us About Rest with Eryn Lynum

My guest today is Eryn Lynum: master naturalist, author, bible teacher, home schooling mom, and podcast host. Friends, she’s incredible! And this episode with her is just so fun! We had the best time talking about nature and seeing God at work there. Eryn’s love of nature and God’s word have taught her much about the importance of pursuing rest. But this learning actually began when Eryn was a young teen.   At the age of 14, Eryn learned that she had a potentially life-threatening disease that required rest to keep her alive. This started Eryn on a journey of learning to manage the stress and anxieties of life in a way that was healthy and holy.  In this episode, Eryn talks about her new book, The Nature of Rest: What the Bible and Creation Teach Us About Sabbath Living, and how it is the story of all she’s learned about rest from her own life journey, to studying creation and God’s word. Eryn is a joy to talk to. She is a wealth of fun and fascinating nature knowledge, as well as a wise guide to biblical living. I love this episode, and I know you will too! Be sure to get Eryn’s new book today! You can find it right here.  Resources mentioned in this podcast: Find Eryn’s new book here Find Eryn’s first book here Find Eryn’s website here Find Eryn’s podcast here Find Eryn on Instagram here Find more about Awana programs for kids here The Greta Eskridge Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.
