When you finish a long, exhausting season of work, everything in you wants to go home and shut down. But in this episode, we talk about why God called His people to do something different — to come together and celebrate before they scattered — and why that rhythm of celebration is essential to a healthy spiritual life.
Continuing in Nehemiah 8, we look at the Feast of Booths and what it teaches us about reflecting on God’s faithfulness, celebrating what He has done rather than what we accomplished, and never letting the win quietly turn into a bragging session. There’s a time to work and a time to celebrate — and both point back to the gospel.
