Rest for the Weary 10: God's Grace in the Mundane with Maryanne Challies Helms

In today’s episode we’re chatting with Maryanne Challies Helms about how to glorify the Lord even in the midst of what we might consider to be the “mundane” everyday work of life and ministry. Maryanne is a wife, a mother of four, and a fellow member of Morningside Presbyterian Church in Georgia. Maryanne embodies so well what it looks like to faithfully live as a Christian, especially in the current online spaces, which we talk about some in this episode! We pray this episode encourages you to see your work—even if it is ordinary or mundane—as beautiful unto the Lord and glorifying to him.
