Description
A volume of 52 crisp focussed meditations, accompanied by the author's fine photographs, around the theme of being Sabbath - not just keeping the Sabbath, but allowing God's rest to seep into your daily life: to be, rather than endlessly prove ourselves by doing. "I don't think God judges me by how clean I keep my house," writes Shelly Miller. "May you lean into the invitation to rest, with the assurance that Sabbath isn't about restricting your schedule but increasing your capacity when the schedule threatens to overtake you."
