Life is busy, so we have to be intentional about taking a sabbath: a day of rest when we refrain from the work we would normally do any other day of the week. It’s a day set apart to reset your mind and heart. Seth & Alicia Williams share ideas for leading your family in practicing the Sabbath. You’ll also learn how to be creative with small pockets of rest throughout the week.
QUOTES TO REMEMBER

- “For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.” — Matthew 12:8
