The Sabbath Way

Making Room in Your Life for Rest, Connection, and Delight

De: Travis West

Narrado por: Travis West

Experience the transformational power of the sacred, ancient, radical rhythm of Sabbath rest.

In the fast-paced, chaotic, overly scheduled cadence of our culture, it can be difficult to imagine how to squeeze the Sabbath into our already over-stuffed lives―like trying to fit an eleventh passenger into an eight-passenger van. What if Sabbath isn’t designed to “fit” into our lives, but rather to take over our lives―in the best way imaginable?

Hebrew scholar and Old Testament professor Travis West believes that we’ve misunderstood what it means to truly Sabbath. In his book, The Sabbath Way, Travis takes listeners on a spiritual journey to discovering radical rest is more than a weekly practice of taking a day off―it’s also a posture, a way of living every day. It means much more than sleeping in, taking naps, or chilling poolside for an afternoon; instead, the radical rest of Sabbath means putting rest―and delight, gratitude, and flourishing―first rather than last. Using personal story and expert knowledge, Travis shows Christians how to make Sabbath rest the metronome that establishes and maintains our life’s rhythms, apprenticing us to abundance our whole life long.

Listeners of this audiobook will discover how the Sabbath:

• slows us down helps us discover the things that make us feel most alive, freeing us from rigidity and legalism
• disrupts our cultural obsession with productivity and achievement and cultivates a more life-giving connection between our work and our worth
• inspires an unhurried, sacramental worldview that sees all of life as a gift
• safeguards neighborliness, creation care, awareness of God’s presence, justice, belonging and inclusiveness―enabling us to grow into the people God is calling us to be in our lives, our homes, our workplaces, our communities, and our world

The Spirit of God longs for you to be fully alive, and the world needs your unique vitality. The Sabbath is calling. Will you come?

Such a Gift!

This is a beautifully written invitation to the holy practice and posture of Sabbath - something so many of us are longing for in today’s world, but are unsure how to enter. West gives both personal and deeply theological reflections, as well as practical starting points (see additional PDF resources!), to allow everyone to feel they can claim what he calls our “birthright” of rest and delight. In playful and accessible language (well-read by the author himself), West challenges and encourages readers wherever they may be on their own journey toward the healing and wholeness Sabbath graciously offers.

Relief and Joy

This book spoke right to my heart. Sometimes life can feel like a heavy weight and my Christian faith leads me to want to do everything right for God’s purposes. Travis West shares in the Sabbath God designed his children for play and delight and not simply work and toil. His invitation in the Sabbath Way is to experience the delight God designed us for and to grow in this way.
