When Your Mind Won’t Let You Sleep, Listen to Jesus

If your mind is still busy at the end of the day, settle in with these Bible stories for sleep and the reassuring words of Jesus. We begin in John 14, where Jesus speaks to friends who don't yet understand what comes next. From there, we'll listen to stories of his care, with gentle reflections, quiet music, and a closing prayer. There's no need to keep up or stay awake until the end. “Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you.” John 14:27, World English Bible You're welcome to subscribe and join our community for more Bible stories at bedtime.
