Wrestling with Rest w/ Dr. Nathan Stucky (ep. 036 Rebroadcast)
Did you set your New Year's resolutions? Was carving out a more intentional Sabbath one of them? This week we are republishing an awesome interview with Dr. Nathan Stucky about his contemporary research and theological understanding of sabbath. It's certainly worth a re-listen, as we can always be fine tuning our approach experience the Divine in our rest. The team at Eden Revisited hopes you had a Merry Christmas and wishes you a Happy New Year! Stay tuned for more content, interviews, and banjo interludes in 2022!

How often do we wake up on a Sunday morning and really look forward to a day of rest, one where we see the day as an opportunity to stop and reflect on God's omnipotent grace? How can we "wake up" with work looming on Monday, chores to be completed, and activities to haul the kids off to? It can often seem like there is never a moment to breathe.
In this episode, Tyler interviews Dr. Nathan Stucky, professor at Princeton Theological Seminary and founder of the Farminary. Nate grew up on a farm in Kansas, which is where he attributes his love of farming. He studied music at Bethel College, and spent six years as a youth minister before heading to graduate school at Princeton. Along with having his Doctoral degree he is also an ordained minister in the Mennonite tradition. Nate has recently been taking a close look at the role of Sabbath in our relationship with God. We discuss his recent book, Wrestling with Rest, which serves as a rich theological dive into the meaning of Sabbath in the midst of our busy contemporary lives.
In our conversation we discuss God's vision of rest, from the creation story all the way to Jesus' living ministry. We examine our role in recognizing the pure gift and significant meaning of true Sabbath practice. We finish by discussing some of the innovative agricultural education that he and his students participate in at the Farminary.
