How Do We Practice Sabbath?
Published 2 years, 5 months ago
Description
There are many misconceptions about what practicing the Sabbath, or ceasing from work, really entails. People often view Sabbath as a day for lounging around the house, binging a show on Netflix, or just doing nothing. Those things can be fine, but do they really bring about "soul rest?" In this episode, Josh and Christi go in-depth about the purpose and meaning of Sabbath, and the unique ways they have learned to cultivate it in their home. Josh and Christi talk about:
- Shabbat dinner as a fun, family-centric rhythm for your weekly Sabbath
- Why Sabbath rest is a gift from God and how you can make it work to fit your family dynamic
- How to fight against the pull of Western culture away from the biblical gift of Sabbath
