In this episode of the Joyful Health Show I'm not here to give you New Year's goals but to help you reset your Sabbath. I firmly believe that any work that matters must be rooted in the rest of Jesus. Let's battle burnout, hustle culture, and productivity idols by reestablishing a weekly Sabbath rhythm and give you a day of rest to look forward to with the Lord and a firm foundation to work from with Him. 

In This Episode We Discuss:

• What the Sabbath is: where it came from, what it looked like and our modern-day Sabbath
• My personal experiences from observing a Sabbath in college to what it looks like for me in this season
• The 4 major blocks to practicing your own Sabbath and how to navigate each

Our Scripture anchor for this episode is: “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath” Mark 2:27

My hope is that you will get to experience the joy of rest and find true restoration in mind, body, and spirit through honoring the Sabbath with Jesus.
