About this listen

In this new edition, popular author Walter Brueggemann writes that the Sabbath is not simply about keeping rules but rather about becoming a whole person and restoring a whole society. Brueggemann calls out our 24/7 society of consumption, a society in which we live to achieve, accomplish, perform, and possess. We want more, own more, use more, eat more, and drink more. Brueggemann tells listeners how keeping the Sabbath allows us to break this restless cycle and focus on what is truly important: God, other people, all life.

Perfect for groups or self-reflection, Sabbath as Resistance offers a transformative vision of the wholeness God intends, giving world-weary Christians a glimpse of a more fulfilling and simpler life through Sabbath observance.

I love this book.
It is a "Deep Dive Into Sabbath and Your Heart". It took me on a journey into connections of the 4th Commandment, greed, and idolatry.

The Sabbath is punk rock…that’s the moral of the story. Sort of anyway, it is a very dense and engaging spiritual book that has made me reflect and rethink some of my habit as a long time believer. Being a punk rock kid at heart though I love the view of how and why the Sabbath is so truly counter culture, even in biblical historical times.
