Season 1 Episode 7 // Being Formed through Sabbath
Welcome back to An Abiding Life Podcast with your hosts, Hunter + Kait Poppa! In this episode, we talk about the blessing that Sabbath is and spend time discussing some practical ways that you can start to incorporate this spiritual discipline into your life. We believe that practicing Sabbath rest is a wonderful way to bring the peace of God beyond just one day and into the corners of your weeks and life. Rest in Jesus and in His completed work is the foundation of our faith!
Here are a few reflection questions to keep in mind as you listen through this episode:
1. Though as followers of Christ we are no longer required to follow the Levitical Law found in the Old Testament, what are some benefits to regularly practicing the Sabbath beyond just finding rest during your week?
2. If you don’t already practice Sabbath, or if you do only on occasion, what obstacles seem to get in the way of consistently enjoying this intentional time of rest, worship, and delight in God?
3. If you were to view the weekly Sabbath as you would a yearly holiday like Thanksgiving or Christmas, how would this make you approach it differently?
