Comments on: Finding Freedom Through Sabbath Resistance https://transformingcenter.org/2022/10/finding-freedom-in-sabbath/ Strengthen The Soul Of Your Leadership Mon, 20 Feb 2023 20:59:51 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9 By: Chuck Groce https://transformingcenter.org/2022/10/finding-freedom-in-sabbath/#comment-732097 Mon, 20 Feb 2023 20:59:51 +0000 https://transformingcenter.org/?p=16414#comment-732097 🙏🏾🙏🏾]]> The information in this letter is on target, but I would remind you that the fourth commandment is very specific.
Exo 20:8  Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Exo 20:9  Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
Exo 20:10  But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
Exo 20:11  For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

There is no mention of observing any day as a sabbath.
God does not change🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Yes, I do know of her work and have listened to this podcast and really appreciated it. I just looked up Tricia’s book on Amazon and see that it came out the same day as mine! What are the chances?:) I wish i had known of her work while I was writing my own book so I could have quoted her. Interestingly, for the past 20 years I have identified myself as the “Director of Naps” when I teach about rest so yes, we are definitely kindred spirits!

Tricia talks about her new book, Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto. I found it so interesting how many of her insights resonate with yours, Ruth. You’re probably already aware of her work, but if not, I’d commend that podcast and Tricia’s work to you. You’re kindred spirits, it seems, coming from different angles at the same deeply important need and practice of rest.
