How to Sabbath Well

The dynamic of work and rest is basic to being human. But how do we rest well? Changing patterns of work, and social, and economic pressures have left many people wondering is there a better way to rest—to really rest?

We’re convinced that there is, and we’ve created a beautiful, slow, device-free resource to help people learn God’s rhythms of rest: to learn how to sabbath well. Sabbath rest is one of Scripture’s profoundest themes, a bright thread that runs through all creation from beginning to end. To embrace the Sabbath is to step into a practice of freedom for life with God: a rhythm of gratitude and rest, rejoicing and feasting.

This beautifully-designed magazine-style book is the work of over 15 contributors, featuring insightful engagement with Scripture, fascinating interviews and first-hand reflections, as well as poetry, original art and illustration, and photography.
