Thief of Joy: Busyness and Why God's Call to Sabbath Still Matters

Are you feeling hurried, busy beyond what you thought was possible, stripped of joy? Our culture has a solution for you - buy this bathrobe or three of these candles or this SUV to take you to the mountains so you can find the rest you so desperately want and need.  They have one thing right - we need this rest! But here's what they have wrong - you don't need to buy it. God offers it to you. It's on the first page of the Bible! Join us for this conversation where we explore: What Sabbath truly is What it means to "work from rest" rather than "rest from work" Why God's heart for Sabbath rest for us today matters more than ever Why legalism will ruin Sabbath for anybody Why we need to give ourselves grace as we seek to practice, not perfect Sabbath Here are a few of the resources we referenced during our conversation: The Body Teaches The Soul by Justin Whitmel Earley The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer Liturgy of the Ordinary by Tish Harrison Warren Next Steps Do you have some Sabbath practices that work for you? Get in touch so we can share them with our listeners! [email protected] We'd love to pray with you and hear how things are going in your marriage and family as well!
