3 Radical Benefits I’ve Gained From Having A Sabbath Practice
Like any good southern Christian in the Bible Belt, I was taught about the ten commandments — and how all of them still apply (don’t commit adultery, don’t murder, etc.) except for the Sabbath. I was never really told why, just that we don’t follow laws like that now that Jesus has died.
In recent years, my eyes have been opened to the continued need for such a practice, especially in such a frenzied and hurrying society.
During my senior year of high school, I read both The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry and To Hell With the Hustle and listened to a podcast that both the authors had put together.
My mind was blown by these new ideas. I didn’t have to work myself to death or “hustle for my worthiness” as Brene Brown might put it? It was a novel idea I was rather taken with. But all of this still leaves the question…
While everyone practices differently and there’s debate about how we’re supposed to do it, there are some barebone principles we can all be aware of as for how the practice is supposed to go.
