Commit Time to Enter God's Rest

Sabbath

Sabbath is a central practice for followers of Jesus. One day out of seven, we cease from the activities of daily life to enjoy rest, to worship God and to experience delight in one another and in creation.

This practice frees us from the compulsions and anxieties that often rule our lives, and helps us trust God.
