Just received a copy of Nathan Nicholson’s new book, “In the Beginning We Create: Reflections on Collaboration, Creativity, and Rest” (InterVarsity Press, 2026), and really appreciated his encouragement to artists to rest:
“Take thirty minutes today to do something restful. Take a nap [yes, please], go for a walk in nature [because it’s what the doctor ordered], spend time with loved ones [which I’ll do tonight over BBQ before I travel to Houston to teach]—anything that rejuvenates you.”
