24/6

A Prescription for a Healthier, Happier Life

By: Matthew Sleeth MD, Eugene Peterson - foreword

Narrated by: Claton Butcher

Just as the Hebrews were slaves in Egypt, we have become slaves to technology. Our technological tools allow 24-hour productivity and connectivity, give us more control, and subtly enslave us to busyness itself. The Sabbath is about restraint, about intentionally not doing everything all the time just because we can. Setting aside a day of rest helps us reconnect with our Creator and find the peace of God that passes all understanding. The Sabbath is about letting go of the controls one day a week and letting God be God. So how do we do it?

In 24/6, Dr. Matthew Sleeth describes our symptoms, clarifies the signs, diagnoses the illness, and lays out a simple plan for living a healthier, more God-centered life in a digitally dazed, always-on world. Sleeth shares how his own family was dramatically transformed when it adopted Sabbath practices and helps listeners better understand how their own lives can be transformed - physically, emotionally, relationally, and spiritually - by adopting the 24/6 lifestyle.

Sabbath

I appreciate this scriptural outlook on Sabbath. He has a nice balance of personal experiences and Scripture to help emphasize the importance of Sabbath.

Simple and clear illustrations relating to the importance of the sabbath.

I enjoyed the illustrations that were used taken from life experiences. I appreciated the reminder through the Scriptures of the importance of worshiping on the Sabbath. I felt this clarified the meaning of true rest. This was a pleasant affirmation of gods perfect provision through adhering to his holy Scriptures.

Excellent book with a very needed message

I loved everything about this book. Scripturally sound and still applicable in todays world. Well done!

Life changing!

I have been inspired to begin keeping a Sabbath. I think other readers (listeners) will appreciate, like I did, that the author doesn't belittle or shame anyone (even Christians) for not already recognizing Sabbath, but encourages us with the incomparable benefits of the gift of the Sabbath.

This audio book is a blessing.
