Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest: From Sabbath to Sabbatical and Back Again (Transforming Resources) - Hardcover
Book 14 of 15: Transforming Resources
Synopsis
Will You Accept God's Gift of Sabbath Rest?
In our frenzied culture, the possibility of living in balanced rhythms of work and rest often feels elusive. This rings especially true for pastors and leaders who carry the weightof nonstop responsibility. Most know they need rest but might be surprised to find within themselves a deep resistance to letting go and resting in God one day a week, let alone for longer seasons of sabbatical.
The journey to a meaningful sabbath practice is slow and gradual, and it is a journey we need to take in community. Sharing her own story of practicing sabbath for the past twenty years, Ruth Haley Barton offers hard-won wisdom regarding the rhythms of sabbath, exploring both weekly sabbath keeping as well as extended periods of sabbatical time.
In Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest, you'll find:
- Practical steps for embedding sabbath rhythms in churches and organizations, grounding us in God's intentions in giving us the gift of sabbath,
- An opportunity at the end of each chapter to reflect and engage God around your own journey with the material, and
- A conversation guide for small groups and communities to foster transformation on a community-level.
Sabbath is more than a practice―it is a way of life ordered around God's invitation to regular rhythms of work, rest, and replenishment that will sustain us for the long haul of life in leadership.
