Thank you for this update, Julian! I certainly have been feeling the need for Sabbath, sleep and stillness. I often find myself being able to engage easily in sleep, but stillness is much harder. As you said, "we are pathologically restless due to the excesses of capitalism and anti-blackness." Amazing (in a bad way) how many ways that plays out in our lives, systems, and structures. May the Lord continue to bless your ministry of Notes of Rest and those who receive the ministry - it really is a necessary lifestyle (and systemic, structural) change we need.
