On November 6, 2014, Bruce Hindmarsh, Ann Voskamp, Mark Buchanan, and Paige Gutacker discussed how Sabbath is not just a rest from your workweek but a reorientation of your life. Watch the video below.
We are busier than ever. In today's technology-saturated world, the rhythm of our lives is go-go-go. Electric lights and screens keep us awake well after the sun goes down. The chirping devices in our pockets ask for our attention 24/7. Our jobs are demanding, whether we’re climbing corporate ladders, taking care of toddlers, or serving coffee to the noon rush-hour crowd. The influx of information and pressures of modern life undercut the rest we need in our souls. When will the break come? How can we find freedom and clarity? And where is God in the busy? Or, maybe the harder question—where are we?
For more on sabbath and rest see the Fall 2014 edition of the Regent World.
As we weren't able to get to all your questions during the live broadcast, Bruce and Mark have provided video responses to those we missed below.
