The Practice of Sabbath
Manage episode 419444102 series 2536806
As we walk through the book of Acts this year, we are also looking at eight practices from Jesus and the early Christians that shaped the life of the Church through time. In this teaching, Evan Wickham walks us through our fourth practice: Sabbath. It's also Pentecost Sunday—the day the Western church celebrates the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon Jesus' first disciples in Acts 2. What does Pentecost have to with Sabbath? For the Spirit-filled body of Christ today, to practice Sabbath is to engage in a weekly rehearsal of Pentecost. Just as the disciples waited on the Holy Spirit in Jerusalem before doing Jesus's work in the world, so too, we wait for God on the Sabbath Day, and from that place of waiting, we then partner with God in our work for the rest of the week.
