Pastor Kent Dresdow, with Executive Pastor Matt Rehrer and Pastor Jeremy Pray, discusses Matt’s new book, When Sleep Won’t Come. Matt explains what compels him to write, and how his work as an ER physician, his counseling in the local church, and a packed conference session showed him how many people struggle with sleep in silence. The conversation then turns theological. Sleep is more than a physical process; it is a gift from God (Psalm 127:2) that calls us to hold body and soul together. Each night we lie down vulnerable and dependent, practicing the trust we will one day need to face death itself, as seen in Jesus asleep in the boat (Mark 4:38), Stephen falling asleep as he was stoned (Acts 7:60), and Peter sleeping soundly in prison before his trial (Acts 12:6).How are you sleeping, and have you considered what your restless nights might reveal about what is occupying your heart? Do you receive sleep as a gift from God, or treat it as wasted time or a mechanical necessity? When you lie down at night, are you resting in the Lord’s care, or holding on to worries you have not entrusted to Him? If every night is a small rehearsal for trusting God with death, what does your rest say about where your hope is anchored? And if you have been struggling quietly, who in your church could you talk to?Welcome to NorthCreek Church!In glad reliance on the Holy Spirit and Scripture, we exist for the glory of Christ, to make disciples who worship God, walk in love, and witness to the world.Connect With Us:Sunday Services: 9:00AM & 10:45AM Address: 2303 Ygnacio Valley Road, Walnut Creek, CA 94598Online Resources:Main Website: https://www.northcreek.org/ NorthCreek Academy (TK-8): https://ncapschool.org/ Sermon Archive: https://northcreek.churchcenter.com/channels/19901 Church App: Download the Church Center App and search for “NorthCreek Church”
