Synopsis

In our era of chronic exhaustion, learn how setting aside 24 hours to stop, rest, delight, and worship restores joy and spiritual vitality in this guide from New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer and the team at Practicing the Way.

This Companion Guide to the Sabbath Practice from Practicing the Way provides a practical, accessible approach to incorporating this life-giving rhythm into your weekly routine. Designed to be used with four engaging video sessions freely available online, this guide offers spiritual exercises, reflection questions, and additional resources to help you and your community experience Sabbath as the best part of your week.

This guide will help you:

• Understand the biblical foundations of Sabbath
• Learn to “stop” and align with a rhythm God built into the fabric of creation
• Develop personal practices for meaningful rest, play, and communal celebration
• Resist internal and external forces that war against Sabbath
• Cultivate a spirit of worship that extends throughout your week

Discover how setting aside 24 hours can transform every day of your week, leading to a deeper connection with God, others, and your own soul.

Part of a series of nine core practices that together build a Rule of Life for following Jesus in the modern world, each guide can be read individually or together in any order:
The Sabbath Practice
The Prayer Practice
The Fasting Practice
The Solitude Practice
The Generosity Practice
The Scripture Practice
The Community Practice
The Service Practice
The Witness Practice

Practicing the Way is a nonprofit that creates spiritual formation resources for churches and small groups learning how to become apprentices of the Way of Jesus.

To that end, we help people learn how to be with Jesus, become like him, and do as he did through the practices and rhythms he and his earliest followers lived by.
