Markus 2:26

“Our hearts are restless till they find their rest in Thee.” Never before have so many of us felt the restlessness Augustine described with this famous sentence. But what is the solution to our lack of true rest? As this three day plan will show, the solution partially lies in viewing the ancient practice of Sabbath through a different lens—through the lens of “Thee”—Jesus—our ultimate source of peace.

The Bible is our handbook for life, and its commands are guideposts to righteousness. Jesus saved us by his death but also calls us to a life of obedience. Foremost in God’s law are the Ten Commandments, which still apply today. While these commandments seem straightforward, one in particular is far more difficult than you might imagine or hear about at church! Read on to find out….

We live in an “always on” type of culture, and that is not a helpful or sustainable way to live. In this 3-day plan, you will discover God’s desire for you to experience a healthy rhythm of life and work. Pursuing balance is more than better time management. The way we choose to spend our time reveals our hearts and what we value.

Most of us are overworked and utterly exhausted, so the concept of Sabbath could not be more important. To honor the Sabbath means to “keep it holy,” and holy simply means “set apart.” Our Sabbath should look different than the other six days of our week. In this Plan, we’ll discuss what it is, what it isn’t, how it looks today, and finding our true rest in Jesus.
