Sabbath: What it is and how it can change your life.


Listen Later

North City is taking a Sabbath ( A break - no community dinner) Sunday. Our community values a rhythm of sabbath in our lives, not just as an occasional practice but as a way of life.

Sabbath is a sort of resistance... a resistance to the "must do and have everything now" culture we live in. Sabbath is a faith-filled stopping, that says "God is providing, and our identity is not in what we achieve it's based in God's family."

Because we are engaging in this practice this weekend we thought we would repost this old teaching by Pastor Sabbath is a faith-filled stopping, that about the Sabbath as a way to reengage our imagination around what Sabbath can be for us, and for you. ou. active but also a way of life.

Description from the original post:

What if you spent your life building a life you never stopped to enjoy? Would you really be living? God wants something better for you, its called  sabbath.
Join Pastor CA and JD as they explore the practice of sabbath and how it can transform your life. Sabbath as enjoyment, sabbath as resistance, sabbath as awareness.
