Sabbaticals book
you don't want to waste your sabbatical.
Let me help you get the most out of this gift.
Are you worn out from ministry? Isn't Jesus' burden supposed to be light?
In the pressure-producing machine of our chaotic world, Jesus' words of rest don't often touch our lives. As ministry leaders, we know a lot about rest, yet we don't often experience it. The ancient practice of sabbath provides ample wisdom on how to enter into Christ. Sabbaticals is a guide showing us how to implement sabbath principles into a sabbatical as well as into the ebb and flow of our entire lives.
