Sabbath in the Modern World: How Rest Fuels Our Calling

Sabbath in the Modern World: How Rest Fuels Our Calling

In a world that never stops, true rest feels impossible—especially when you’re balancing work, ministry, and family. I’ll be the first to admit that I struggle to take a real Sabbath. I convince myself that I don’t have time, that everything depends on me, and that rest can wait. But here’s the truth—when we refuse to rest, we weaken the very calling God has given us.

In this episode, we’ll explore why biblical rest isn’t just a suggestion—it’s a necessity. We’ll look at how Sabbath fuels our faith, strengthens our work, and keeps us from burnout. Plus, I’ll share my personal struggle with slowing down and the practical steps I’m taking to build a real rhythm of rest.

If you feel stretched thin, overwhelmed, or guilty for slowing down, this episode is for you. Let’s stop seeing rest as a luxury and start embracing it as an act of trust in God. Because when we honor the Sabbath, we step into the strength we need for our calling.
