Maybe we’re wrong, but we sense that a lot of us have fallen into patterns that aren’t working for us. Or the patterns that got us to where we are today will not get us to where we need to go. This episode explores how the ancient practice of Sabbath rest may be timely for us to hear when it comes to meaning, community, fun (yes fun) and of our need for a protective shell against the technological onslaught in our busy and often chaotic lives.  John Hilley draws upon a little known gem of all of the thou shalt nots in the Bible (Leviticus 19) and is influenced by a wonderful podcast in which Ezra Klein and Jewish scholar Judith Shulevitz discuss the attraction the Sabbath holds for their life filled with busy work lives and young children. Here is the link to the Ezra Klein Show: Sabbath and the Art of Rest.  Music in today’s episode is by Nate Strasser “Down to the River to Pray.” As always thank you for your comments and sharing and for your financial support of this ministry.
