The Sabbath Challenge Paul M Burns

Sabbath keeping can seem like an impossibility when our lives are crammed so full of obligations, responsibilities, distractions, worries, and cares. Yet learning to disconnect from the world for a day so that we might rest may be the most important thing we can do for ourselves-and for our relationship with God. Rest is a radical act of faith, and the Sabbath is a day to become more aware of ourselves and those around us, to learn how to live in heaven, to experience the powerful, compassionate love of God. This Bible study, written for both individuals and groups by Presbyterian pastor Paul Burns, is a challenge to all who seek rest from the world, a challenge to embrace the Sabbath and the peace it offers
