Summary:
In today’s world, with its relentless emphasis on success and productivity, we have lost the necessary rhythm of life, the balance between work and rest. Even our vacations have a panicky, task-like edge to them. “If only I had more time,” is the mantra. How can we possibly find rest in a busy world? Enter the word “Sabbath.” It is straight out of the Bible and God’s own practice. Sabbath rest is not an afterthought, or simply the absence of work. Knowing our tendency toward stress, God commands us to rest, and He hard-wired into us a need for its rhythm. Far from laziness or legalism, it is an activity that restores us, so that our work is more productive. Join us to learn how to find rest in a busy world.
