Practices of Jesus

Apr 12, 2026

Why Sabbath? This is a practice of Jesus. It is a command from the Old Testament. But why? Also this is really challenging for us.


We live in a culture that glorifies:

Busyness

Productivity

Hustle

But God values:

Rest - why

Trust

Abiding


“Before the Sabbath was ever a command to obey, it was a rhythm to receive.

God built rest into creation long before He required it in the law.

Which means Sabbath was never meant to be a burden—it was always meant to be a gift.”
