Why You're Still Tired | Boundaries: The Sabbath

from Go With God · host Kaley Hollingsworth

Are you feeling exhausted, burnt out, or overwhelmed? In this episode, we dive into why Sabbath isn't just a suggestion—it is the foundational spiritual discipline that makes all other boundaries possible.We travel back to the first pages of the Bible to see how God established rest not as a response to burnout, but as a part of the original design for a good life. From the Garden of Eden to the radical laws of the Sabbath Year and the Year of Jubilee, we discover that Sabbath is more than just a day off; it’s a way of claiming our time as holy and trusting in God’s provision.In the first episode of this deep dive, we discuss:The Sabbath Thesis: Why you can’t have healthy boundaries without the Sabbath.Creation vs. Commandment: Understanding the Sabbath as a pre-sin gift meant for all humankind.The Theology of "Holy": How God "blesses" by giving and "sanctifies" by claiming our time for Himself.The Manna Principle: What the Israelites in the desert teach us about our own inability to trust God for 24 hours.A Return to the Garden: How honoring the Sabbath recenters our relationship with God away from our busyness.If you’ve always assumed Sabbath was "just church on Sundays," join us as we uncover the weight, the benefit, and the sacred rhythm of biblical rest.Scripture Mentioned: Genesis 2:1-3, Exodus 23:10-12, Leviticus 25:1-12, Exodus 16:27-30, Exodus 20:8-11Mentioned in the Episode:Links + more!Connect with Kaley:www.kaleyhollingsworth.comIG: @kaley_hollingsworth⁠⁠YT: www.youtube.com/@kaleyhollingsworth
