Restoring Your Soul by Restoring Sabbath.
Widely-acclaimed author Mark Buchanan states that what we've really lost is 'the rest of God - the rest God bestows and, with it, that part of Himself we can know only through stillness.'
Stillness as a virtue is a foreign concept in our society, but there is wisdom in God's own rhythm of work and rest. Jesus practiced Sabbath among those who had turned it into a dismal thing, a day for murmuring and finger-wagging, and He reminded them of the day's true purpose: liberation - to heal, to feed, to rescue, to celebrate, to lavish and relish life abundant.
With this book Buchanan reminds us of this and gives practical advice for restoring the sabbath in our lives.
