Sabbath Rest | Resting In Christ
Shared on: Aug 28, 2017
It seems that among our modern culture, "rest" is a four letter word in more than one sense. Let's face it, we are addicted to busyness and productivity, to achievement and accomplishment. So much so, that one of God's most basic gifts to humanity is often forsaken and even viewed with disdain. Nevertheless, the Sabbath is not only one of the Ten Commandments, it is also an ordinance set forth by God himself on the seventh day of the Creation story. May this collection of resources help your community rediscover God's good design behind the fourth commandment, and ignite a fresh determination to allow God's Word to organize our priorities and order our days.
