Join #ProsperityWithPurpose Mentorship at www.jessicahefley.com

12 weeks of interactive coaching designed to help you steward your life and multiply your business God’s way and CREATE MORE PEACE to MAKE MORE MONEY!! This week I share an interview with two of my favorite people that are using their gifts in such an amazing way!

As busy entrepreneurs work, work, work can easily lead to burnout. I’ve found for myself and many of the leaders on my team that what may seem counterproductive at first is the most important piece to success. REST. Also connection and awareness with your spouse, yourself, and God. We often need to slow down, to speed up.

Nick and Renee Fouts are of Searcy, Arkansas are the founders of Cedar Rock Ministries.

It is an organization very dear to our family, one in which we serve on the board of trustees. It is a non-profit ministry for married couples and individuals who want to grow in their relationship with God and with each other. CRM’s mission is to provide effective opportunities for people to have a transforming encounter with God through seminars, retreats, counseling, and spiritual direction.

At the heart of CRM is the belief that we are called to rest in the love and goodness of God and to live lives that flow out of that profound reality. So many Christians today live very busy, anxious lives that are marked more by fear and striving in their energy than by faith and serving in the strength of the indwelling Christ. Our understanding of spiritual formation is that growth is primarily a by-product of resting in the Presence of God.

I loved speaking with Nick and Renee about how they decided to form Cedar Rock, why rest and reconnection are so important, and what steps you should take on your journey to connect deeper.

One thing that they teach is the “red dot”. This concept says that your “red dot” is where you are right now. Compare it to the “You are Here” sign at a mall. The red dot tells you exactly where you are at that moment. It doesn't define you but gives you a chance to slow down enough to be present with what is going on with you at the moment. Awareness instead of avoidance. You can communicate your “red dot” with your spouse, friends, family, or people you coach to provide better connection, insight, and understanding. So powerful in practice at these one-of-a-kind retreats and that just scratches the surface as to what you experience at a Cedar Rock Retreat.
