Synopsis

Sabbath-keeping not only brings physical refreshment, but it also restores the soul. God commands us to ""remember the Sabbath,"" but is it realistic in today's fast-paced culture? In this warm and helpful book, Shelly Miller dispels legalistic ideas about the Sabbath and shows how even busy people can implement a rhythm of rest into their lives—whether for an hour, a morning, or a whole day. With encouraging stories from people in different stages in life, Miller shares practical advice for having peaceful, close times with God. You will learn simple ways to be intentional about rest, ideas for tuning out distractions and tuning in God, and even how meals and other times with friends and family can be Sabbath experiences. Ultimately, this book is an invitation to those who long for rest but don't know how to make it a reality. The Sabbath is a gift from God to be embraced, not a spiritual hoop to jump through.

Rhythms of rest is a book that poetically walks you through the ideas of Sabbath. For the weary soul, it comes as a welcome break and a hard look at the rhythms you keep. This is not a book meant to be rushed through, but one worth meditating over. For me personally, it was sometimes hard to focus m......more
