The two pastors begin by reflecting on how increasing years of service at a church can lead to spiritual drain. They move into a more general conversation on our need for rest and renewal (sabbath) and our need to take longer periods of time off (sabbatical). How often should we take such a sabbatical, and what do we do while on sabbatical?

 

For this episode, the two pastors were recording in the same room. Possibly due to non-optimal microphone placement, there are a few segments of poorer sound quality. We apologize for these imperfections.
