Sabbath Resources

Below are great resources for further diving into the theme of rest and practice of Sabbath in the story of the Bible and in our modern overly distracted and busy culture.

Seventh-Day Rest Podcast and Video by the BibleProject

This is a deep dive into the theme of rest and Sabbath that chases the theme in detail from Genesis to Jesus to the Church. If you want to see all the artistic beauty of what God does with the ritual of sabbath and the number 7 (the idea of completeness) check this out!

The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer

This is a recent resource that looks at hurry culture and what it does to our inner person, and how Jesus’ practices can reform us into people of rest that fight the cultural current of busyness. There is also a podcast from the author that explores this book: Fight Hustle/End Hurry Podcast

Subversive Sabbath by A. J. Swoboda

This again, is a book that explores the practice of Sabbath as a subversive practice of the people of Jesus—one that fights the belief that we can do more with more.
