Followers of Christ are invited to rest. We know rest is good, and we crave it. But often, slowing down and implementing rhythms of rest into our lives can be difficult.

Sabbath Guide is a workbook designed to help readers lay a foundation for a weekly day of rest. Through short readings and various activities, the resource walks through a simple Sabbath framework to fill and fuel Christ-followers for the good work God has for them.

“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

— Matthew 11:28

Why Sabbath?

What does the bible say about Sabbath? Why should we still practice it today? In the first section of Sabbath Guide, you’ll spend time in scripture, examining the establishment and purpose of Sabbath.
