About this listen

 If your body is tired, your emotions are thin, and your soul feels like it’s blinking low power mode—this conversation is for you. In this week’s episode of The Deep Water Show, Jackie and Christi sit honestly in the exhaustion many of us feel as Christmas approaches. Finals, travel, illness, to-do lists, expectations ... and the quiet shame that whispers, “Shouldn’t I be handling this better?” Together, they explore: 1. The three intertwined forms of depletion: physical, emotional, and spiritual 2. Why exhaustion often feels like failure -- but isn’t 3. How performance sneaks in where presence was always meant to be 4. Jesus’ gentle invitation in Matthew 11:28: “Come to me… and I will give you rest” 5. What it means to experience Emmanuel—God with us—especially when we are weary This episode is a reminder that Christmas isn’t powered by our capacity. It’s powered by His presence. If you’re longing for rest that doesn’t have to be earned, permission to slow down, and a faith that meets you right where you are, curl up with this one. Blanket optional. Grace guaranteed.
