Dad Tired Daily 005: How To Micro Sabbath Daily

Register for the Dadology Conference for Dads

What if you’re not lazy…
What if you’re just tired?

In this episode of Dad Tired Daily, Jerrad talks about why rest isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom. Drawing from military training, Scripture, and real life as a husband and dad, he unpacks why exhaustion quietly undermines our leadership at home and how learning to rest can actually protect the mission God has given us.

You’ll hear:

• Why elite military teams train themselves to rest under pressure
• How exhaustion impacts your decisions, presence, and relationships
• Why Jesus prioritizes rest for weary men
• A simple, practical “micro-Sabbath” you can practice anywhere, anytime

This isn’t about doing less because you don’t care.
It’s about resting on purpose so you can lead well.

Key Scripture:
Matthew 11:28 — “Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

Simple Practice:
Take one minute today. Feet on the ground. Slow inhale. Longer exhale. Ask God for rest—not more answers.

Rested men lead their families well.
