Keeping
Finding Freedom in the Rhythms of Rest
by Lynne M. Baab
InterVarsity
Press
ISBN: 0-8308-3258-0; paper; 132 pp. (2005)
This is the first Christian book on the sabbath to draw on dozens
of interviews with real-life sabbath keepers.
The sabbath is discussed as a way to learn to experience God’s
grace, and practical suggestions are given for
- what to cease doing on the sabbath and
- what to do to draw near to God.
Publishers Weekly Starred Review:
"Winsome, passionate and persuasive, Sabbath
Keeping will
convince many Christians of the continuing relevance of the
Fourth Commandment."
Sabbath
Keeping is now translated into Korean
