Combining creative storytelling with pastoral sensitivity and practical insight, this book shows how Sabbath-keeping is God's plan for the restoration and healing of all creation.
Christianity Today 2019 Book Award Winner (Spiritual Formation) and Award of Merit for CT''s Beautiful Orthodoxy Book of the Year
Outreach 2019 Recommended Resource of the Year (Spiritual Growth)
We live in a 24/7 culture of endless productivity, workaholism, distraction, burnout, and anxiety--a way of life to which we''ve sadly grown accustomed. This tired system of "life" ultimately destroys our souls, our bodies, our relationships, our society, and the rest of God''s creation. The whole world grows exhausted because humanity has forgotten to enter into God''s rest.
This book pioneers a creative path to an alternative way of existing. Combining creative storytelling, pastoral sensitivity, practical insight, and relevant academic research, Subversive Sabbath offers a unique invitation to personal Sabbath-keeping that leads to fuller and more joyful lives. A. J. Swoboda demonstrates that Sabbath is both a spiritual discipline and a form of social justice, connects Sabbath-keeping to local communities, and explains how God may actually do more when we do less. He shows that the biblical practice of Sabbath-keeping is God''s plan for the restoration and healing of all creation. The book includes a foreword by Matthew Sleeth.
