Are you “keeping the Sabbath” or really resting in Christ?

Ever been taught you’re supposed to shut down your life one day a week to keep God happy? A caller recently asked me about the Sabbath, and let’s just say the assumptions we sometimes bring to that question are massively off-base.

Most Christians don’t realize the Sabbath was never a “Christian thing” to begin with. It was Israel, it was Law, it was a shadow—and yet here we are, centuries later, still feeling guilty for mowing the lawn on a Sunday?

But what if the whole point was never about which day you unplug, but Who you’re resting in? What if the kind of rest God designed for you is deeper, richer, and a whole lot better than a weekly timeout from chores?

In this short video, I break down the difference. You might discover the kind of rest you didn’t even know you were allowed to have.
