Sabbath: The Hidden Heartbeat of Our Lives
No Customer Reviews
Acclaimed poet theologian Nicola Slee reflects on and wrestles with questions of how to practice the scriptural principle of Sabbath in a church and world that have become compulsively driven, competitive and workaholic, obsessively activist and outcome-oriented. Slee's rich and inspiring exploration is rooted in her own poetry and that of Wendell Berry, in particular his profound Sabbath poems. Ideal reflective reading for Christians wishing to resist the materialistic pressures of the world.
Chapters include: An introduction to Sabbaths; The invitation 'into the woods'; The invitation to cessation; The invitation to encounter; The invitation to fear; The recovery of vocation; 'Coming out of the woods'.Format:Paperback
